According to Bruno Haible on 3/6/2008 2:41 PM:
| However, I would prefer API changes as follows:
|   - freadahead keeps its signature but returns the total buffered bytes
count.
|   - freadptr is changed to also return the size of the buffer.
|       extern const char * freadptr (FILE *stream, size_t *sizep);
|     When the return value is non-NULL, *sizep is set to the size of the
|     buffer whose address is the return value.

Sounds fine to me.  In particular, it means that freadptr is now usable
without any dependency on freadahead.
