New issue 2636: sys.stderr cannot write big string on Windows
https://bitbucket.org/pypy/pypy/issues/2636/sysstderr-cannot-write-big-string-on

Armin Rigo:

On Windows, the following script fails with ``IOError: Not enough space: '<stderr>'``.  The same script works on CPython 2.7.10.  I suspect it's Windows that gives nonsense but CPython works around it.

```
#!python

import sys
sys.stderr.write('x' * 0xffffff)
```
