A little more help ;)

[Paolo Carlini]

Hi again Nathan and everyone,

I have got a prototype which already seems to work! (testsuite ok,
all the new tests ok, 81920 chars read in Pétur QoI test ;)

However, 7744 seems not automatically fixed :(

void f2()
{
  cout
  << "\n:: f2() ::\n"
  << "Type in the characters 'abc' and press <ENTER>: ";
  cin.peek();
  cout
  << "The number of unread characters should be 4 (a, b, c, \\n): "
  << cin.rdbuf()->in_avail()
  << '\n';
}

what happens is that upon ::fstat(this->fd(), &__buffer),
__buffer.st_size is zero.

Anything coming quickly to your mind?

Thanks,
Paolo.
