Thank you very much for catching this.

I think we need to change the fix a bit because from that I can tell the
above would cause the "size" file to be relocated to the system wide
"info" directory while we would like to have this file remain associated
with the resource group - but just not apply to a MB resource.

A similar fix may also be needed for the resource group's "mode" file
that was also recently introduced.

I am taking a closer look now.
