I thought it might be about that simple once you went at it the right
way ;-).  However, I'd suggest checking ferror(pset.queryFout) as well
as the fflush result.  It's not clear to me whether fflush should be
counted on to report an error that actually occurred in a previous
fwrite.  (It's also unclear why fflush isn't documented to set the stream
error indicator on failure, but it isn't.)
