Many thanks for bringing this out :)   I've got quite a few drives here
that I'll be testing it out on, including some with 'marginal
prefailure' symptoms, so it will be a good test.

One thing I was going to add in to the code (or you can do it :) ) is
to have a read-only option, since normally I do things like this;

        ddrescue -v -f /dev/sda /dev/null client-drive.log

With the read-only option it wouldn't bother writing data to /dev/null.

Paul.
