I cannot reproduce this. At this step, Emacs just saves the
file silently. And the file keeps its size constant.
I tried with Debian's Emacs-24.3 and Emacs-23.4 as well as with the
current pretest (and using "-Q" rather than "-q").

We're pretesting 24.4, so hopefully we can finally crush this one for
24.4.
