>Description:
	rcorder(8) doesn't provide enough sanity checking;
	when you provide the same file multiple times on
	the command line it just gets added to the internal
	"list of filenames" and other data structures.

>How-To-Repeat:
	Code inspection.
	I'm sure a test case can be easily consed up to prove this.

>Fix:
	Detect if a file is being added again and provide
	a mechanism to override the previous entry, taking
	into account the other data structures that already
	refer to the previous node.
