You are correct that it is a known issue.  I don't have the time at the moment
to check which bug I should mark this as a duplicate.

The unavoidable issue (at least for anything derived from WriterAppender) is
that java.io provides no mechanism to synchronize file writing between multiple
JVM's or even multiple FileOutputStreams within a single JVM's.

Most of the time when people configure multiple appender to write to the same
file, everything seems to work.  However, they are depending on implementation
details.  Things do go spectacularly wrong with the RFA's as you have noticed.

There is no way to reliably address this using java.io.  The right thing to do
would be to write a RFA replacement using java.nio which has been on my wish
list for years now.
