bin/once: fix points problem

TODO: neale says points should be written to state/points.tmp then be moved into
state/points.new to avoid race condition (multiple processes touching the file
causing the file to change risking bad data in state/points.log). It might be
wise to do some validation in bin/points that tosses bad data.
