According to Bruno Haible on 2/29/2008 3:49 AM:
| With strace you can see that there is only a single read() from the file
| descriptor. I.e. at the moment when freadahead() returns 0, it is only
| the ungetc-backup-buffer which has been emptied; the main buffer still

| Where to fix this? In closein.c? Or in freadahead.c?

It seems like freadahead should add together the length of the ungetc
buffer and the read buffer, if we can easily get to both those pieces of
information - the contract of freadahead is that it tries to report how
many bytes can be read from the stream without requiring another
underlying read().
