There is something curious here.  The second flush() fails.  Can anyone 
explain this?

------------------- code snippet ------------------------
...
# create a memmap with dtype and shape that matches the data
fp = np.memmap(filename, dtype='float32', mode='w+', shape=(3,4))
print "Initial memory mapped array (mode 'w+'):\n",fp

# write data to memmap array
fp[:] = data[:]
fp.flush()
# append a row to the array
fp = np.append(fp, [[12,13,14,15]], 0)
print "Filled memory mapped array:\n",fp
fp.flush()
...

-----------------  output -----------------------
