more than 2 indexes in org-mode -> latex

How many indexes can you have in an org-mode document exported to latex?
My experience shows 2! So how can I have 3, or more please?

This is the relevant part, I think, of my preamble of my file -

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+latex_header: \usepackage{imakeidx}
#+latex_header: \makeindex[title=Index,options=-s ./index.ist,columnseprule,intoc]
#+latex_header: \makeindex[name=ps,title=Index of Symptoms,options=-s ./index.ist,columnseprule,intoc]
# #+latex_header: \makeindex[name=se,title=Index of Side-effects,options=-s ./index.ist,columnseprule,intoc]
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I can have any choice of 2, but not 3 as I would like.

In a 'straight' latex file using the above commands I can have 3 or
more, so how do I get it to allow 3 or more in org-mode please?

Thanks
Sharon.

Answering my own question and saying you've made a cock-up! I'm using
the 'morewrites' package and if you include it after setting up the
indexes you will get this result with using 3 indexes -

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(/usr/local/texlive/2016/texmf-dist/tex/latex/morewrites/morewrites.sty
(/usr/local/texlive/2016/texmf-dist/tex/latex/morewrites/primargs.sty)
! No room for a new \write.
\e@ch@ck ...message {No room for a new \string #4}
                                                  \fi \fi 
l.34 \newwrite \g__morewrites_iow
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

But if you put morewrites before the index setup, then 3 or more indexes
work perfectly well, with absolutely zero problems.

Thanks
Sharon.
