Bus error
I'm not sure what should happen in the md case, but a Bus error is one
of the worse possibilities. For mw the file should be extended
appropriately, maybe even if the file doesn't exist.
It's not instantly clear to me, how to implement this for mw however.
Suggestions (for both cases) welcome.
Best regards
Uwe
