Summary: wrong behaviour of open mode "a+"

Initial Comment:

Since changing the bahaviour of the open mode "a"
(appending, write only, seeking automatically to EOF with each write)

also, and wrongly, the open mode "a+" changed to automatic
EOF seeking at each write.

Correctly it should seek to EOF _only_ at initial open, as
documented.

Fixed by removing the O_APPEND when a '+' is seen when processing the mode
string.
