First of all, is the mbnames files still needed by mutt? Or could this
finally be removed?

Second, the mbnames.py has not been touched since 2003, but looking at
it, we certainly only ever open the file for writing when we write out
all the names in one go and close() the file immediately.

So the only case this could happen if a different thread crashes while
we are writing out things.

I believe you are seeing the behavior you are seeing, but I can't
explain where it could come from. What we will be able to do, is to
protect other threads from aborting without properly closing down
things.
