Subject: [PATCH] - Bjorn Augustsson reported a bug which made curl not report
 any problems even   though it failed to write a very small download to disk
 (done in a single   fwrite call). It turned out to be because fwrite()
 returned success, but   there was insufficient error-checking for the
 fclose() call which tricked   curl to believe things were fine.
