Bug#750850: HTTP::Cookies: save() ignores write errors

[Jakub Wilk]

Package: libhttp-cookies-perl
Version: 6.00-2

This is how HTTP::Cookies::save() is implemented:

    my $self = shift;
    my $file = shift || $self->{'file'} || return;
    local(*FILE);
    open(FILE, ">$file") or die "Can't open $file: $!";
    print FILE "#LWP-Cookies-1.0\n";
    print FILE $self->as_string(!$self->{ignore_discard});
    close(FILE);
    1;

So it it dies when open() fails; but it doesn't do anything when close() 
fails, so write errors (e.g. ENOSPC) are ignored.
