Err, what about the following excerpts from the POSIX fread/fwrite manual
pages:

    Upon successful completion, fread() shall return the number of elements
    successfully read...
    [http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/fread.html]

    The fwrite() function shall return the number of elements successfully
    written...
    [http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/fwrite.html]

And the following excerpt from the fread/fwrite man page on Linux:

    fread() and fwrite() return the number of items successfully read
    or written (i.e., not the number of characters).
