       The  explain_fstat_or_die  function  is used to call the fstat(2) system call.  On failure an explanation
       will be printed to stderr, obtained from explain_fstat(3), and then the  process  terminates  by  calling
       exit(EXIT_FAILURE).

       This function is intended to be used in a fashion similar to the following example:
              explain_fstat_or_die(fildes, buf);

       fildes  The fildes, exactly as to be passed to the fstat(2) system call.

       buf     The buf, exactly as to be passed to the fstat(2) system call.

       Returns:
               This function only returns on success.  On failure, prints an explanation and exits.
