Last night, my amanda run had a problem.  The partition on which
infofile is stored ran out of space.  With infofile set to
/var/lib/amanda/normal/curinfo, the file:

/var/lib/amanda/normal/curinfo/condor/__redbird_l$

had 0 length, which meant that all history for this partition was
lost.  I restored the file from backup, and things look better.

Is it possible to write the new file in a way that the old file is not
deleted until the new file is known to exist?
