Ishapore screw

Can I be a newby for a second and ask what the ishy screw was for? Was it a reinforce to prevent any tendency for splitting forward of the main screw, (which is a little odd considering how uncommon that actually is) or was it to stabilize the forend as an accuracy aid, or ...?
thanks
