Environment: Ubuntu 20.04, main branch (git commit dddbc17), GNU coreutils v9.5.218-7e5b6

What happens now: uutils head:

$ echo abc | ./target/debug/head > /dev/full

(it terminates with no error message and exit status 0)

What I expected to happen: GNU head:

$ echo abc | head > /dev/full
head: write error: No space left on device
