While working on my View classes (see

I found this (sparse) description about Catalyst::Engine::write():
Writes the buffer to the client. Can only be called once for a
request.
Is the second phrase correct? I couldn't see why and at least
finalize_body() from the same package can do many calls to write() for
one request.
That's not correct, write() can be called as many times as needed to
send data. See the implementation of finalize_body in
Catalyst::Engine for one example.
Then I'm a little confused about Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI::write():
In the source you find
*STDOUT->syswrite($buffer);
Looks like IO::Handle is loaded somewhere, but this turns out as a
mistake, because other than documented this syswrite() doesn't return
the number of bytes written - at least not as a Perl integer value,
but
instead returns the size as a binary value.
Because the class of this syswrite hides behind the STDOUT glob,
I'm not
able to track this bug up to the origin.
Anybody knows what's behind the file handles in this module?
What bug are you seeing?
