[mtools] [PATCH] Fix for mtype outputting garbage

[Panagiotis Issaris]

Hi,

It turned out that the problem was caused by the lack of initialisation
of a SimpleFile_t variable in plain_io.c.

The SimpleFileOpen function allocated memory but did not clear it before
using it. Some fields were initialised, but the swap field sometimes did
not get initialiased.

Patch attached (diff -ur).

With friendly regards,
Panagiotis Issaris
