Hi, tested with cvs HEAD:
Just terminating the loop after write_overlapped_fallback is not enough. When the size to write exceeds MAX_OVERLAPPED_WRITE_LEN and WriteFile fails for MAX_OVERLAPPED_WRITE_LEN, write() will always return 0.
Now any write with length > MAX_OVERLAPPED_WRITE_LEN fails with -1 / EFBIG (on the machine that has the WriteFile limitation).
