User-agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.2.15) Gecko/20110307 Fedora/3.1.9-0.39.b3pre.fc14 Thunderbird/3.1.9

Using bash 4.1.7:
$ printf "ab\nc" > /dev/full
bash: printf: write error: No space left on device
bash: printf: write error: No space left on device

$ /usr/bin/printf "ab\nc" > /dev/full
/usr/bin/printf: write error: No space left on device

The same is on bash 4.2.8.

The second write error is done in PRETURN macro - fflush() sets again error bit on stream.
