gdalbuildvrt is normally cautious about non opening too many files at the same 
time. I can't replicate your issue with the following script

```
from osgeo import gdal
import shutil

fnames = []
for i in range(1024):
    dstname = 'testbuildvrt/byte%d.tif' % i
    shutil.copy('byte.tif', dstname)
    fnames.append(dstname)

dst_ds = gdal.BuildVRT(
            "/tmp/out.vrt",
            fnames,
            options=gdal.BuildVRTOptions(separate=True),
        )
dst_ds = None
```

If you want a mosaic, you likely want separate=False.
