file locked even though hClose called

If I open the same file twice with openFile, then close both handles, and then use writeFile to overwrite the file, I get a locked file error.

I have attached a file which includes three test cases. One always fails, one always succeeds, and one sometimes fails when run multiple times, but only in GHCi.
