If you execute this program after making a copy of the source in a
file called foozle, the expected result would be a seven character
file "foozle" containing the string "Yowza!".  This is the case for
Linux, but the libc for v2.0 of DJGPP neglects to clobber the target
file "foozle" before writing.

/*
   */

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

void main (void)
{
  FILE* fp = fopen ("foozle", "w");
  fprintf (fp, "Yowza!\n");
  fclose (fp);

  exit (0);
}
