As I understand it, MPEX builds a new, larger file, copies the data, purges
the old and then renames the new file to the original file's name.  This is
basically what a user would do today, unless they had access to a
low-level, trusted file routine as Stan has outlined.  Disclaimer: MPEX may
have changed in more recent versions....
