> This should diagnose the write failure and exit nonzero:
>
>     emacs --version > /dev/full
>
> Currently (latest from bzr trunk as of yesterday),
> emacs exits 0 (successfully) and gives no diagnostic.
> Obviously that doesn't matter too much, but this next one
> can easily cause real trouble:
>
>     $ emacs --batch --eval '(print "important")' > /dev/full && echo FAIL
>     FAIL
>
> I.e., the write fails and emacs fails to report that failure.
>
> That means anything written via --batch to standard output may
> be corrupted or incomplete, and emacs will still exit successfully.
