[Bug 984785] Re: .goutputstream files polluting $HOME

[Karolis]

ok, i've wrote a lot before while i was using presice (though i find it
not so useful), but now i'm testing quantal and here the sum of what
i've found  - i have to excuse, because i didn't have enough time to dig
in to it:

it seems that goutputstream* files are not generated on every single
shutdown operation. however, it is being generated. i haven't inspected
the time of creation or the process of creation, sorry about that, but
in precise i have always had constantly same 52 bytes size
goutputstream* files containing the same bytes in all of them. the
difference were in the file name and that's it. however, in quantal i
see 0 bytes long goutputstream fiels. yet again i repeat - there is no
syncronization of file creation time to shutdown time, but it happens.

i promise to check it back again during the next 30 days if the bug is
still around, good luck guys;]
