I wasn't involved in this feature, but it looks like OrangeFS is taking advantage of open() being declared with variable length arguments to pass in a fourth "hint" parameter.

Becky, I've got a Centos VM with the same "__open_too_many_args" check:

$ cat /etc/redhat-release
CentOS release 6.6 (Final)

but orangefs still builds. I guess there's some kind of glibc feature that's enabled by default on recent tool chains.
