The problem is that with this change of the *default* behavior some programs might ill-function. I don't say correct programs. But programs so far can recognize bugs by checking the fclose status only. By flagging the overflow at printf time this would change and those programs might mysteriously fail. Programs which want the early failures can easily use setvbuf etc on their own. No reason to potentially upset programs. -- http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1995 ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
