abort might not flush all open streams before process termination (was: aarch64-suse-linux-gnu: libgomp.oacc-c-c++-common/abort-1.c, libgomp.oacc-c-c++-common/abort-3.c FAILs)

Hi!

Copying glibc for your information/in case anyone has any further
comments, and the man-pages maintainer, Michael Kerrisk.  The issue is
that abort might not flush all open streams before process termination;
original thread starting at
<http://news.gmane.org/find-root.php?message_id=%3C87twq4p9f4.fsf%40kepler.schwinge.homeip.net%3E>.

It's still surprising to me that the message written to stderr is lost in
your aarch64-suse-linux-gnu configuration (only): from a quick look,
(current) glibc's stdlib/abort.c tries to actually close/flush all open
streams before process termination.  This is also what's documented on
<http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/abort.3.html>: "all open streams
are closed and flushed".
<http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/abort.html>
does sound more "conservative": "[abort] may include an attempt to effect
fclose() on all open streams".  Should the man-page be edited to that
effect?  And, the following patch be applied to GCC?
