Removing the files fixes the issue

Adding random text at the end of the file breaks again

to reproduce:
cp -ar inputs inputs.new
[root@server cfengine-community]# cd inputs.new/
[root@server inputs.new]# vim promises.cf
Add some text at the end

It seems that generation append to existing policy.new files in place of replacing them.

Actually, it only happens when the corrupted file is LONGER than the newly writen file. So, it's like there is "replace" which is done in place of an "overwrite".
