Re: g_file_write()

[Soeren Sandmann <sandmann daimi au dk>]

I have put up a new patch at
 
       http://www.daimi.au.dk/~sandmann/filewrite2.patch 

that should take care of most of the comments:

- Function is now called g_file_replace(). (I think
  g_file_replace_contents() suggests that permissions etc. are
  preserved).

- Documentation mentions that the write is atomic, and some of the
  traps.

- Uses fdopen(). Since we are already using fdopen() on Unix
  in one place, and Tor says that it works as expected on Windows I
  don't think this makes glib any less portable than it already is.

- Test/unlink is only done on Windows and only when an initial rename
  attempt failed.
