+ If a program writes *anything* to stdout, that program should `fflush'
+ stdout and make sure that it succeeds before exiting. Otherwise,
+ suppose that you go to the extreme of checking the return status
+ of every function that does an explicit write to stdout. The last
+ printf can succeed in writing to the internal stream buffer, and yet
+ the fclose(stdout) could still fail (due e.g., to a disk full error)
+ when it tries to write out that buffered data. Thus, you would be
+ left with an incomplete output file and the offending program would
+ exit successfully.
+
+ FIXME: note the fflush suggested above is implicit in the fclose
+ we actually do below. Consider doing only the fflush and/or using
+ setvbuf to inhibit buffering.
+
+ Besides, it's wasteful to check the return value from every call
+ that writes to stdout -- just let the internal stream state record
+ the failure. That's what the ferror test is checking below.
+
+ It's important to detect such failures and exit nonzero because many
+ tools (most notably `make' and other build-management systems) depend
+ on being able to detect failure in other tools via their exit status. */
