I of course would be glad if that was fixed too. However it seems to 
depend on the possibility to change the file open mode after open with 
the current implementation. I do not know if this is possible on Mac. Is 
it? What about GNU/Linux?

Maybe I have misunderstood this. I would be glad for a correction in 
this case. I have only glanced through the code and read the documentation.
