  Here is a semi-official patch (apply to /usr/src/lib/libc/stdio/fseek.c,
  rebuild libc, install).  The current code fails when the seek:
  
  - is optimized, and
  - is to just past the end of the block currently in the buffer, and
  - is followed by another seek with no intervening read operation, and
  - the destination of subsequent seek is within the block left in the
  buffer (seeking to the beginning of a block does not force a read,
  so the buffer still contains the previous block)
  
  so it is indeed rather obscure.
  
  I may have a different `final' fix, as this one `loses' the buffer
  contents on a seek that goes just past the end of the current block.
  
  [Footnote: seeks are optimized only on read-only opens of regular
  files that are buffered by the file's optimal I/O size.  This is
  what you get with fopen(path, "r") and no call to setvbuf().]

   Other patches from ftp.bsdi.com need to be examined and incorporated if
appropriate as well. I started doing this a few weeks ago, but then got
sidetacked with more important things...then got sick, etc.
