I like that it keeps the FILE* interface separate from the file
descriptor version. On some platforms they may have very different
implementations.
Also, frankly, I find the FILE* version more-or-less useless.
I can live with names c_filebuf, FILE_filebuf, c_file_buf, or
stdio_filebuf for that version. I prefer the last as clearest.
