+Subject: [PATCH] fix assumption in fputs that fwrite returning 0 implies an
+ error
+
+internally, the idiom of passing nmemb=1 to fwrite and interpreting
+the return value of fwrite (which is necessarily 0 or 1) as
+failure/success is fairly widely used. this is not correct, however,
+when the size argument is unknown and may be zero, since C requires
+fwrite to return 0 in that special case. previously fwrite always
+returned nmemb on success, but this was changed for conformance with
+ISO C by commit 500c6886c654fd45e4926990fee2c61d816be197.
