// MFILE provides memory-buffered output with a FILE-type interface.
// BOINC uses this in a couple of places:
// 1) in the GUI RPC system (since in Windows you can't fdopen a socket)
// 2) in the API, to support a primitive form of checkpointing:
// Write all your output (and restart file) to MFILEs.
// The output is buffered in memory.
// Then close or flush all the MFILEs;
// all the buffers will be flushed to disk, almost atomically.
