You meant oa.write(something, 10); here, right?

libstdc++ <= 2 is not fully standard compliant.
You get the same results with egcs 1.1.2 or gcc 2.95.x.
It will allow you just to seekp below the string length (e.g. oa.seekp(5L,
ios::beg); in the above example would work).
With libstdc++-v3 (part of GCC 3.x, completely rewritten) this works
properly.
