I just went ahead and fixed the root cause of the bug instead of using

The patch is released under the dual LGPLv3 (or later) / MPL license.

Subject: [PATCH] Fixed write(2) usage in process.c.

Shared the code in a new function (safeWrite) that can handle partial write.
Fixed the 2 usages of write in the file.
