Subject: (check_and_close, dump, dump_strings): Don't report bogus errno value
 after ferror discovers an output error.  We don't know the proper errno
 value, since it might have been caused by any of a whole bunch of calls, and
 it might have been trashed in the meantime. Fixing this problem will require
 much more extensive changes; in the meantime just say "write error".

(skip): If a read fails, don't retry it later, so
that we report the proper errno.
