95/11/01 13:18 DEFECT in mergedb
MSS notice corrupt eclipse files in baselines solutions
SYMPTOM: the eclipse file showed abnormal truncation or misformatting of
the last line(s).
PROBLEM: mergedb did not explicitly close and therefore write a new EOF mark
to the eclipse file. In normal solutions, a larger file would be
written using all data. Then a smaller file using data from a
single baseline is written over the original leaving an apparently
corrupt file.
CORRECTION: close eclipse file at return from wrecc.
