That is unexpected.

writev() may fail if the sum of iov_len would not fit within ssize_t
with EINVAL, but unless your "the OSS I/O size limit" is the same as
SSIZE_MAX, what you have above is not quite the same.

Does your build work with NO_WRITEV=Nope?  I think I saw it asked a
few times but I do not recall seeing it answered.  At least we know
xwrite() seems to work well enough on your system, which is what the
writev() emulation is written in terms of, so I suspect it would.
