E.g. here:

$ cat x.c
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>

int
main (void)
{
  fclose (stderr);
  char a[5] = { };
  strcpy (a, "foobarbaz");
}
$ gcc -O2 -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 x.c
$ LIBC_FATAL_STDERR_=1 ./testrun.sh ./a.out
Aborted

we use stderr stream after it's been closed, which is undefined; it looks like
we really should check STDERR_FILENO before writing to it.
