null (no way we can get NULL)
This goes without saying. We may do anything on getting an invalid
pointer (i.e., an arg that isn't a pointer to an open stream, in
particular a null pointer).

+1 -6 to add $Id$ and delete the section on returning EBADF might be
correct. The documentation could say something like "EBADF The named
stream is not actually a stream, but appears to be the carcass of a
stream that was fclosed. This behaviour is an implementation detail,
so it should not be depended on. Why am I documenting this?"
