OK, that sounds reasonable, I'll just add a note to the batch mode description
then.

No idea. It's strange that failure occurs when inflating the _second_ file. I
don't really understand the code well enough to understand what's going on.
Btw, what about the other patch (the one that adds --write-batch=prefix, among
others), does it work for you? And can you perhaps show me how to create a
setup where the batch files are created in your homedir, which is the other
problem you were seeing?
