fprintf failures on read-only streams

Just last week, glibc fixed a bug where vfprintf failed to set ferror()
when returning EOF due to an attempt to output to a read-only stream:

http://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=commitdiff;h=aec84f5395

Should we update fprintf-posix and friends to detect this bug and work
around it on older glibc?  And at any rate, we probably need to update
docs/posix-functions/[v][f]printf to document it.
