When running mountstats under "watch," occassionally the output
shows "close failed in file object desctructor: sys.excepthook is
missing" and the data display is messed up. This seems to be a
common problem when Python script output is piped to another
program.

Ensure stdout/stderr is completely flushed before mountstats exits,
and add an IOError exception handler to catch these exceptions
gracefully.

Solution suggested by: http://bugs.python.org/issue11380
