Could you please add a comment that specifies the test that you are not
going to add, and why you're not going to add it? I think that it would
be helpful to future generations of developers to know why we believe
that, in this case, libstdc++ can meet the specs without having code to
handle this case.
As you may have noticed, in a following message I pointed out that, since
streamsize is actually a typedef for ptrdiff_t, we shall definitely add that
test. Just give me a couple of days to understand the best way to do it ;)
