I know that's not the answer you're looking for, but increasing the file
handle count will not prevent evolution from crashing - it'll only make
evolution make more noise when it crashes.
File handle limitation is there for a reason - to prevent one
application for taking down the system.
Letting evolution eat unlimited number of file handles will only risk
the stability of other applications instead of fixing the problem.

As for getting a fixed version in FC5, can you post a bug report in
bugzilla?
