It isn't in -current, does this mean that it wasn't considered an
acceptable long-term solution?

Really large numbers of hardlinks are probably rare enough, but the
default limit of 4 seems a bit low, it should probably be at least as
high as the maximum link count encountered on a normal installation.
There are other ways to hold down at least as much memory per file you
can keep open as with the limit of 4.
