+ * Some cases use stdio, but want to flush after the write
+ * to get error handling (and to get better interactive
+ * behaviour - not buffering excessively).
+ *
+ * Of course, if the flush happened within the write itself,
+ * we've already lost the error code, and cannot report it any
+ * more. So we just ignore that case instead (and hope we get
+ * the right error code on the flush).
+ *
+ * If the file handle is stdout, and stdout is a file, then skip the
+ * flush entirely since it's not needed.
