+[16] The libio stream file functions should be extended in a way to use
+     mmap to map the file and use it as the buffer to user sees.  For
+     read-only streams this should be rather easy and it avoids all read()
+     calls.

+     standards do not demand that the file on the disk is always in the

+     to the page size and install the correct length only for fclose() and
+     fflush() calls.
