} So you want to save the return value of fread() for debugging purpose?

Yes.  However:

} builtin.c:4435:36: warning: unsequenced modification and access to 'count' [-Wunsequenced]

That warning means my attempt was not successful; there's not a proper
sequence point in that expression.

} Anyway, I feel the macro is too complicated, so how about either
} 
} (b) give up saving the return value of fread()
}    ( .... && (count == fread(BUF, 1, count ,FOUT))) ? count : (size_t)-1 )

Agree that's probably the way to go.

} Sorry for taking your time.

Do not apologize, this is good.  Might be avoided if I had a test system
handy with clang on it, but I presently do not.
