# echo 80000 > /proc/sys/fs/file-max to increase the max number of open files allowed on your system (you use Linux, IIRC). Replace 80000 with whatever number you require. /proc/sys/fs/file-nr tells you the max used in this session. Also, in master/master.c you may need to change the line "limit_fds(RLIM_INFINITY)" to "limit_fds(60000)" (or some other particular number) because at least on my Linux (2.4.16) it doesn't know how to change to infinity.
