...

This is the same as version 4.

It looks good.

There are a couple places the comment precedes the test and is not yet 
valid:

or it could be a hole

here is where it is unwritten extent

here we did find a hole

here is where there is nothing in map[1] and ...

it could be unwritten or a hole

here is where we know it is unwritten.

I am being really picky, but comments really help a quick read of the code.
