Reading from /dev/full gives bytes=0, error=ENOSPC, as recently reported
(after I conflated it with another /dev/full I've seen somewhere). A
program which gets the same result from /dev/full as /dev/null is a program
without proper error checking; a program which gets the same results from
/dev/full as /dev/zero has a bug.
