This is a problem you run into if you do sort the filenames (the wrong way,
alphabetically). If I understand Bart correctly he suggests something like
with open(DESTFILE, "wb") as outstream:
for filename in map("XXX_chunk_{}".format, itertools.count()):
try:
with open(filename, "rb") as instream:
shutil.copyfileobj(instream, outstream)
except FileNotFoundError:
break
