Dear all,

I'm Pär Larsson and I work at Umeå university hospital. Sorry to bother you 
with a question relating to an older discussion 
(http://sourceforge.net/p/samtools/mailman/message/34109200/). John Marshal 
expressed concerns that removal of the 28 byte EOF block from bgzip archives 
would be unreliable for catting archives together using the 'cat' command. 
Seems to work when I try (using bgzipped bed files) although tabix indices and 
archive sizes become different.  It would save time if it could be done this 
way so I'm just curious if anyone might know when and how it could fail. 
Silently?

-Pär
