Is the read itself failing actually useful though ? does the calling code handle this, and can anything meaningful (or even useful) be done in this error case ? [ does this code path even get tested at all ]. I can believe for the SuperBlock case (where apparently we can use another block) it -might- be somewhat useful but ... AFAICS these registry files are written once, and subsequently ~not at all for the lifetime of the install. Or, at least they are written extremely infrequently and read very frequently. Consequently -if- it is at all necessary to have some integrity check, can it not be some crawl of the structures post create; rather than on every read ? It seems we have fewer checks (CRC wise) on our valuable document data ;-) --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
