Sorry, I forgot to suggest an alternatives.
I was thinking about ignore the report when writing the last email.
Since, the report is likely consists of multiple lines of text,
and they likely contains some single quote themselves.
Now, I think a bit more, I think it's way better to write as:
if (write_in_full(report, buffer.buf, buffer.len) < 0)
die(_("couldn't write the report contents to file '%s'.\n\n"
"The original report was:\n\n"
"%s\n"), report_path.buf, buffer.buf);

Our style guides says we wouldn't want this pair of {} if it's single
statement.
