trouble get istream get()

[dek@cgl.ucsf.edu]

Hi, according to stroustrup, (p 618, I think), the following code should
copy input to output faithfully (including whitespace).
However, with libstdc++ from CVS (as of today), whitespace (both spaces
and newlines) are ignored:

#include <string>
#include <iostream>
int main()
{
  char c;
  while(cin.get(c))
    cout.put(c);

  return 0;
}

I didn't look too deeply into the get() implementation, but I didn't see
anything obvious which should skip whitespace...
