That was the purpose of the patch, even if maybe I should calculate it

OK, but I'm not seeing why the patch would be a good idea for the
coreutils master branch. Without the patch, doesn't 'cat' work well on
all porting targets? Why add an unnecessary syscall?
Which syscall? sysconf doesn't ask the kernel for page size.
Fair enough. But why add an unnecessary call? How would it improve cat's
behavior, from the user's viewpoint?
