When you fix something, you continue and hit another barrier.. That's normal :)
At the moment, you need to solve "too many open filesystem"  error.
It is the OS that causes this.. But! it may a result of a misbehaving application as well .. In this case the frmservlet.
Wndows Servers have also limitations on maximum open files.. Use net config server to check.. It is set to 16384..

I couldn't see another method than updating the registry to increase the open file limit for windows..
Check it with your Windows admin.. You know what to do..

This coredump generation may also be related with the "too many open files" error bytheway.

you should investigate why your forms are crashing..
FORMS_CATCHTERM may help you on disabling/enabling forms debug..  MOS Note : What does s_forms_catchterm mean? (Doc ID 1530898.1))

MOS note "Tuning Performance on E-Business suite (Doc ID 744143.1)" recommends setting FORMS_CATCHTERM to 0. By doing this you tell OS to do that core dump generation thing. If you disable core dump generation on OS, than you get what you need :)

As for cleanup, you may use the script/one liner provided in the following MOS note : Automatic dump file cleanup in ORACLE_HOME/forms/trace (Doc ID 1674590.1)

*Note that, I didn't test these things and I don't have a windows server (running EBS or forms) to play with at this moment.. So you should consider my comment carefully. The risk is yours..

However; your Forms version is an old one.. So you may be hitting a bug as well...  Check OS logs and forms server logs, there may be a cause for your failing (and core dump generating) forms there..
