I did (and I also tried the fgetc example). What I was traying to
explain is that it doesn't seem so certain to me which should be the
right behaviour in such case.

Or course, the fact that fgets behaves in diferent ways for file and
memory streams is an inconsistency in the library, but It might also
be a bug (ambiguity) in the specification (or the documentation). You
know, those "implementation dependent" clauses...

I think it is a good idea to check with upstream. Please, tell me if
you find out...
