Note that the problem isn't *just* output followed by input 
without an intervening positioning operation:  the file was 
opened in append mode ("a"), not append-update mode ("a+"), 
so input isn't "legal" period.  MS can mangle part of the 
file even if there is a seek() in between (but doesn't if 
opened in append-update mode instead).
