Comment (by bgamari):

 For the record, on my Debian 8 machine this succeeds in writing the entire
 buffer,
 {{{
 #include <stdio.h>
 #include <stdlib.h>

 void main() {
         FILE* f = fopen("test", "w+");
         int n = 1024*1025;
         char* xs = malloc(n);
         size_t written = fwrite(xs, 1, n, f);
         printf("written = %d\n", written);
 }
 }}}
