I should note that this isn't hard to fix, though. I had it working
under Win32 for a while by tweaking natFileDescriptor to read() into a
stack-allocated or malloc()ed buffer (depending on size) and then copy
from there into the byte[].

Hrm, could we make this a configurable on the trunk? I can write up a
patch for it.
