New Comment:
Are you sure that you are using 4.3.5? If yes, then you have really to
few file handles and this problem have nothing to do with PHP. SunONE
recommends for the webserver to raise the hard limit of open files
(must be done by root in /etc/system):
set rlim_fd_max=8192
set rlim_fd_cur=1024

Unfortunately ih happens rather randomly on many websites I host, which
are themselves instances of opensource solutions like Mambo, TikiWiki or
dotProject.
It's often a fopen() fonction call that raise a 'failed to create/open
stream: Too many open files'. The trick is that when I refresh several
times, it happens work back again...
I'm quite puzzled :/

In which context does that happen? Any function call? The Zend engine
itsself has no further limitations.
Only 3rd party modules can run into this limitation if they use stdio
which is limited in Solaris 32bit (even 3rd party libs that are used by
a PHP extension).
Libs/Extensions that have problems (as I know):
* sybase/sybase_ct (in the libs of Sybase, not PHP) -> use freetds
here
* imap extension (no further testing), depends on the imap library
used
* older MySQL libs, use newest one, not the bundled one
In PHP itsself one of this are currently the mail() function because it
uses stdio pipes to send data to sendmail.

Though I'm running PHP 4.3.5, I encounter the same problem.
Do you have another solution?

Use the newest version of PHP (4.3.3 or greater). There this limit is
removed.
Your comment to 64bit is not acceptable for iPlanet users because
iPlanet is a 32 bit webserver which cannot run modules compiled in 64
bit.

The issue is that the (brain-dead) solaris libc has a hard limit of 256
FILE*s.
It is not possible to fopen() more files than that (although open()
works just fine).
Duplicate of Bug #20274.
