Hmm, I just looked at it in an idle 5 minutes, and it is rather difficult to
fix: the sioux console driver sets a hard eof flag on a low level. So I hereby
retract the offer to fix it (unless people can point me to the right page in
the C standard where it says that this behaviour is illegal, so I can send a
bugreport to MW: I have this feeling that clearerr() should clear eof
conditions too, but I haven't got a standard handy).
