Hmm, I would prefer a name without 'pending'. "pending" refers to a queue
of actions, which is an appropriate analogy for the output buffer but not for
the input buffer.

The description is: "Determines the number of bytes waiting in the input
buffer of a stream."

freadahead ?
finbufsize ?
finbufcount ?
ffilledahead ?
