 Try
 
 % fstat | less
 
 and search for ?(tmpfs).
 
 It looks "fstat" doesn't report a filename.
 For example, it did 'tail -f /tmp/x' and got
 
 hiro     tail       19521 root /             2 drwxr-xr-x     512  r
 hiro     tail       19521   wd -         -     ?(null)    -
 hiro     tail       19521 text /usr     525051 -r-xr-xr-x   16980  r
 hiro     tail       19521    0 /dev        132 crw-rw-rw-   ttyp5 rw
 hiro     tail       19521    1 /dev        132 crw-rw-rw-   ttyp5 rw
 hiro     tail       19521    2 /dev        132 crw-rw-rw-   ttyp5 rw
 hiro     tail       19521    3 -         -    ?(tmpfs)    -
 
 I do not know how rrds or newsyslog rotates files. But,
 http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=kern/131356
 may also be related.
