/* Close standard output.  On error, issue a diagnostic and _exit
   with status 'exit_failure'.

   Also close standard error.  On error, _exit with status 'exit_failure'.

   Since close_stdout is commonly registered via 'atexit', POSIX
   and the C standard both say that it should not call 'exit',
   because the behavior is undefined if 'exit' is called more than
   once.  So it calls '_exit' instead of 'exit'.  If close_stdout
   is registered via atexit before other functions are registered,
   the other functions can act before this _exit is invoked.

   Applications that use close_stdout should flush any streams
   other than stdout and stderr before exiting, since the call to
   _exit will bypass other buffer flushing.  Applications should
   be flushing and closing other streams anyway, to check for I/O
   errors.  Also, applications should not use tmpfile, since _exit
   can bypass the removal of these files.

   It's important to detect such failures and exit nonzero because many
   tools (most notably `make' and other build-management systems) depend
   on being able to detect failure in other tools via their exit status.  */
