changeset 3403:9ab12ba48e48
Correct credits, as cccp.c no longer
exists and anyway it was so heavily changed from the old cccp
code as to be unrecognizable. Include full-write.h.
(full_write) Return size_t, with short writes meaning failure.
All callers changed. This fixes a bug with large buffers
on 64-bit hosts.
