Hi Alan,

Do you mean directly map IO_Append to handleWrite in io_util_md.h for 
the *nix case? And then where do we check the O_APPEND flag in our 
code? Or do we require users to open the file with O_APPEND flag? Thanks!
Yes, either IO_Append is defined to be handleWrite or else add 
handleAppend that simply calls handleWrite. There's no need to check 
O_APPEND after the file is opened for append, not on *nix anyway.
