Lars, could you explain a bit how the code in lyx::lyxsum works?

- why do we need a ostringstream/ostrstream? Is it really imppossible
  to output from an ifstream to a string? That looks like a stupid
  thing, IMO.

- why is the ostrstream created without a corresponding char[] buffer,
  whereas a buffer is used in the other cases? What;s the behaviour of
  the constructor in this case (I read the std, but I am not sure I
  understand it).

I am trying to fix the bugs reported on 1.1.5 which just crashed in
lyxsum.

JMarc
