That is a good point. I don't know if write has a limit on 'count' (I can't find anything saying that it does), but if it's simply "whatever you can fit in size_t" then you certainly want to be careful about putting that on your stack. Failed alloca's don't really give you any indication, though you might sigsegv later.
