I see I should have checked the actual stdio behavior instead of relying on
the standard. Recent Linux and Solaris both do, in fact, generate SIGXFSZ out
of C stdio. AIX 5.3 does not, and neither does HP-UX 11.23, although HP-UX
11.33 does, suggesting a bug fix.
Do you happen to have a pointer to the text in the POSIX (or C) spec that
requires (or allows) this behavior of stdio?
Also, even if it is allowed, I still don't think it's desirable. I'm curious
what other libstdc++ maintainers think. Benjamin, Paolo? I'll probably raise
this on c++std-lib@accu.org.
