I'd like to thank those on the list who identified this problem, and
mmalc for the workaround solution.
My shipping app (planbook- downloadable at www.hellmansoft.com) was
bitten by this one, but with your help I was able to quickly patch my
app and avoid further data loss among my users.
This is, IMHO, a huge bug (my users lost hours and hours of work- of
course they should have been backing up more frequently) and I hope
that other core data document based application developers quickly
patch their programs!

I've been able to re-pro this with a bare bones core data document

store seems to be ok.
You can download the re-pro case from http://www.pocketsoap.com/osx/emptyFile.zip
run it, enter some text, select save, and choose either XML or
binary format. look at the file, it'll be fine. now select save
again, now the file will be 0k long. (radar #/5575683)
That appears to be a genuine, rather unpleasant, bug. Thanks for the
report.
This bug affects subclasses of NSPersistentDocument using a store
other than SQLite when saving "no changes" on 10.5.
Malcolm has posted some workarounds, which I hope will carry people
through until we can fix this.
This bug does not affect non-document based Core Data applications.
