The right fix is really this:

  for (;;) {
    c = fgetc(f);
    if (c == EOF) {
      if (ferror(f) && errno == EINTR)
        continue;

fgetc only changes errno if there's an error. Even if errno != 0, prior to
calling fgetc, fgetc won't change it. The only way to check for an error
is to use ferror(f). If ferror(f) is true then errno has been updated as
well.
