What system configuration (libc, etc.) is this? The Open Group Base Specifications Issue 7 http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/stdin.html only mentions this: extern FILE *stderr, *stdin, *stdout; and says that it defers to the ISO C standard. The ISO C11 standard (draft 1570, anyway) https://port70.net/~nsz/c/c11/n1570.txt has this to say: stderr stdin stdout which are expressions of type ''pointer to FILE'' that point to the FILE objects associated, respectively, with the standard error, input, and output streams. I don't see anything in there about stdout being read only, though I suppose there's nothing in that explicitly requiring they be assignable. <grumble> musl, isn't it...? --D > > Hi, > > I think you may have meant this to go to Darrick Wong > (darrick.wong@xxxxxxxxxx), cc'd.
