In fhandler_base::open_with_arch.

Right, but if open isn't called, because you already have an archetype
at this point:

  if (!(res = (archetype && archetype->io_handle)
        || open (flags, mode & 07777)))

Then the archetype is one already created by a former open_with_arch
call and then you delete an archetype which is still in use, no?
