Murkon's Refuge: Turns and backup files

What happens if someone plays Murkon's Refuge for over 10 million turns? The backup file name only has space for 7 decimal digits. This means that on the 10 millionth move, the file name will roll over to 0 moves.

If a player plays one move per second, continuously, he/she will reach 10 million moves in about 3 months, 25 days, 17 hours, 46 minutes and 40 seconds. So it's entirely possible that such a thing might occur.
