Makes sense as a preparatory step to pass the return status
throughout the call chain. The functions that actually will detect
issues should probably gain
/*
* a comment before the function
* that documents what it does and what values it returns
* to signal the failure.
*/
before them; those that only pass the errorcode through to the
caller do not necessarily have to, though.

This is questionable. Why does it write final_buf out regardless of
the return value, even though it refrains from writing terminating LF
upon non-zero return from the same function that prepared final_buf?
"Because final_buf is left unmodified when formatter returns an
error, and calling fwrite on an empty buffer ends up being a no-op"
is a wrong answer---it relies on having too intimate knowledge on
how the callee happens to work currently.
