Interesting. It seems this partial write case never triggers (except
for actually killing the core-dump).

Or did you find a case where it actually matters?

Your fix is obviously correct, but it also makes me go "that function
clearly never actually worked for partial writes, maybe we shouldn't
even bother?"
