This issue is described in more detail under this issue (internal link)
Essentially, when multiple madrat jobs are started that all want to write the same PUC, they might end up doing it simultaneously. This PR prevents that and also prevents reading a PUC that was not completely written yet (although that is much more unlikely, it may still occur, when the file is already present but not yet fully written).
