     #include <libexplain/setlinebuf.h>
     void explain_setlinebuf_or_die(FILE *fp);
     void explain_setlinebuf_on_error(FILE *fp);

DESCRIPTION
     The  explain_setlinebuf_or_die  function  is used to call the setlinebuf(3)
     system call. On failure an explanation will be printed to stderr,	obtained
     from the explain_setlinebuf(3) function, and then the process terminates by
     calling exit(EXIT_FAILURE).

     The  explain_setlinebuf_on_error function is used to call the setlinebuf(3)
     system call. On failure an explanation will be printed to stderr,	obtained
     from the explain_setlinebuf(3) function, but still returns to the caller.

     the wrapped setlinebuf(3) system call.
