      Description

        This bug was found by St.Petersburg Java SQE team (by Alexander Kuzmin).

        The java.io.FileOutputStream.write(byte[],int,int) does not work properly
        with IOException.
        If the file that FileOutputStream object connected to doesn't exist any more,
        FileOutputStream.write(byte[],int,int) does not throw IOException.

           FileOutputStream testfile=null;
           byte b[]={'1','2','3','4','5'};

            try {
