Some test results:
The longer patch posted at Sun 14:46:24 +0100 made my target system
unbootable. I did not attempt to troubleshoot it, as we are focusing
our efforts on the shorter patch now.
The shorter patch posted at Mon 01:50:27 +0100 is a good start, but it
didn't completely fix the problem for me. I am posting an updated
version with a few changes at the end of this message; the patched
uClibc 0.9.32.1 tree passes both of my test cases.
My changes:
1) Need to break out of the loop on "hard" errors. Otherwise the
library call never returns:
open("/dev/null", O_RDONLY) = 4
dup2(4, 1) = 1
write(1, "hello world\n", 12) = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor)
write(1, "hello world\n", 12) = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor)
write(1, "hello world\n", 12) = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor)
write(1, "hello world\n", 12) = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor)
...
2) Move all of the error handling logic back into the "else" clause. In
particular, I believe we do not want to be checking errno unless
__WRITE() had indicated a failure, since the value may be undefined:
if (errno == EINTR
|| errno == EAGAIN
/* do we have other "soft" errors? */
) {
3) Whitespace/indentation consistency.

Currently, uclibc retains buffered data on stdio write errors,
and subsequent fclose and fflush will try to write it out again
(in most cases, in vain).
Which results in something like this:

This patch prevents that.
