Subject: MDM730 bug fix

PAT730 V8ASM is in AR101:FJW; at MIT-MC.  The last patch in this
file fixes a serious bug found by Ron Fowler that has been in the MDM
series but not in previous versions of MODEM7.  The bug is a file
pointer error that can cause the 'next' directory entry to be
erased instead of the desired on when overwriting files in batch
mode.  It is highly probable that this bug is also in MDM740, but
I have not searched through the object code to find it, -nor will I.
This again points out the necessity to keep the source code for
public domain programs 'open'..
