FWIW, I had a similar thought when reading the original thread. I also
noted that all of the callers here pass "1" for the "fatal" parameter,
and that they are either bools or single strings. I wonder if:

  void write_state_bool(struct am_state *state, const char *name, int v)
  {
	write_file(am_path(state, name), 1, "%s\n", v ? "t" : "f");
  }

would make the call-sites even easier to read (and of course the "\n"
would be dropped here if it does migrate up to write_file()).

I think the "if" here is redundant; strbuf_complete_line already handles
it.
