I assume you're checking:

If so, it most definitely is *not* equivalent and does not work on any
platform.  feof() doesn't return true unless some actual I/O routine has
already encountered EOF, which won't ever have happened in normal
operation.  The call to getc() is an actual I/O that tests for EOF now.
