Comment # 1 on bug 1061 from 
mmv_stats_init(3) unlinks and securely re-creates the mmv stats file on each
invocation, and always has.  So, the hypothetical issue described here cannot
ever have happened in the real world.

One of the dangers of opening bugs from just browsing code I guess.  Worth
mentioning again that reproducible test cases are also a Good Thing (TM).
