Comment 2 for bug 305176

background: glibc 2.3 CVS attributes "fwrite" and "write" with it, and it causes a lot (in the hundreds/thousands) of false positives for bigger software projects, because while it is indeed the case that they ignore the return value, it simply doesn't matter for the application (if, for example, it is used as debug output). Yes, write(2) can fail, but there are cases where the application can't possibly do anything about it, or even cares.
