Thanks Markus! The java.io tests succeed with repeats and the only test 
failures in tier 1-3 were ones problem-listed by 
f7a61fce949ea2d15ec09d295c643d0c2eabea1e.

FYI, besides Kevin's question, there was another concern about this API's 
interaction with BufferedReader (as you know, many Reader users wrap any Reader 
into a BufferedReader, especially you want to read all lines from a reader). We 
currently decide that we might explore line reading capability to Reader, but 
anyways that will not affect this patch.

And I have consulted with Kevin in private; he thinks this minor confusion is 
fine.
