Hi Thomas,

thanks for the patch.   I have a few minor nits:

See (*) below.

I would prefer to have local variable names here which don't just
differ by a leading underscore.  It's a bit confusing.  What about,
say, tmp_ptr/tmp_len, or use_ptr/use_len or something like that?

8?  Why 8?  The size appears to be rather artificial.  The code should
use MB_CUR_MAX instead.

(*) Ok, that works, but wouldn't it be more efficient to do that in
a tiny loop along the lines of

                  int x;
                  ret = 0;
                  while (ret < len && (x = get_readahead ()) >= 0)
                    ptr++ = x;
                    ret++;

?
