Details:

Hello. When _FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 is defined we get a few warnings about unused
return values:

pred.c:625: warning: ignoring return value of 'fwrite', declared with
attribute warn_unused_result
pred.c:629: ... ditto ...
frcode.c:221: ... ditto ...
code.c:188: ... 'fgets' ...
code.c:189: ... 'fwrite' ...

Is there something we can do about this to make -Werror happy? Something in
the neighbourhood of:

- fwrite (segment->text, 1, segment->text_len, fp);
+ size_t written = 0;
+ written += fwrite (segment->text, 1, segment->text_len, fp);
+  if ( written < 0 )
+  {
+   exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
+  }
