Just a thought (I don't know the code): could one perhaps hack the FILE open
code instead to do the necessary checks, storing the result in a variable
associated with the FILE? Then my_fwrite() code could just check the
variable. [And perhaps clear the variable where the FILE is closed.]
That should reduce the overhead, but might be tricky to implement?
