Somehow, this should be done with just two new states. Maybe there should be an 
error state "Unknown" instead of `OtherError` (or `FeoFOrFError` what I 
suggested at the other patch) which can be any of the errors plus the `NoError` 
value. Later, when `ferror()` of `feof()` is checked we can do a second state 
split, but not earlier.
