I'm not sure how to write a testcase for this.

Basically, I need a way to force either (both?) a write to a file or
(and?) a close of a file to fail, so that the close() on the ofstream
will fail and set the state bits appropriately (or not, for non-patched
versions of the library).

I know this is possible if I completely fill up the partition where the
file exists, but I don't think we want to do this in a testcase, right?

So if anybody has any good ideas, I would love to hear them.
If not, then what other options are there Benjamin?
