This is conceivably a useful behavior, and POSIX does not forbid it, so I just made the judgement call to not deny the functionality. Would you actually be surprised to get EAGAIN if you requested non-blocking access to a file stream, ignoring the fact that it just happens to not have been done already for other S_ISREG file streams? -- Brian Fundakowski Feldman \'[ FreeBSD ]''''''''''\ <> green@FreeBSD.org \ The Power to Serve! \ Opinions expressed are my own. \,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,\
