Hi,

I accidentally came across this:

The abort(3) man page says "[...] all open streams are closed and flushed"

With glibc-2.27, to be released pretty soon now, file descriptors will
no longer be flushed. See near the bottom of
https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Release/2.27 .


cheers,
egmont

pedantically, it should prob say "flushed and closed" too ;)

Thanks for the note.

I actually caught this a while back, and it got documented with 
man-pages commit 46dc471b8d34fbc83cfde440069dbe2ebec8cd3f
(8 Oct 2017), and that fix has now been released in the latest man-pages 
release.

Cheers,

Michael
