That should be OK. The worst that's likely to happen is that on Windows
you'll get an error saying that the file is in use. SuperServer on
windows opens the file using file system modes exclusive write, shared
read. Assuming the file system works - which is likely in this case
though unlikely in the case of network mounted files - you won't have a
problem. Linux and unixes allow us to access the primitive file id
which we use to lock access.
