It works for me (on UNIX of course).

Looks like either your shell has clobber disabled (so that redirection
won't overwrite an existing file), or the .dep_segment file is not
writable for some reason.


I'll change the script to remove the .dep_segment file first; although
this is not necessary on UNIX systems it's not a big deal.
