the behaviour of a (badly behaved) library calling fprintf() on stderr when
an unexpected error happens and the calling program has already used
fwritnf() is not going to be obvious enough to notice.
a check (if mode != rightmode {die with snide comment}) would seem
appropriate, have moderate execution time impact, and would possibly reduce
the amount of hair loss in C programmers.
