Thank you Martin and Andrew for helping me.

Below is the patch for STDCXX-522 (std::filebuf::overflow(EOF) writes EOF to
file in unbuffered mode)

Thanks for the patch! I have a couple of questions for you but first
let me make a general comment about our formatting style. The stdcxx
style guidelines haven't been migrated from Rogue Wave to Apache yet,
so until we have migrated them, contributors like you need to try to
figure them out by observing the existing code they are patching.
A couple of the basic ones are:

  1. Use 4-space indents (no TABs).
  2. Separate every opening parenthesis, bracket, or curly brace
     from the preceding symbol by a single space.

So by the way of example, ...

Why is the extra test here necessary? I.f., why wouldn't the original
code be sufficient?

Why is this change necessary at all?
