Re: problems with read()

[DJ Delorie]

If it's a binary file and contains a ^Z character, opening the file in
text mode causes it to stop reading at the ^Z character.  This
is expected.

What you should do is add O_BINARY to the open flags to force binary
handling of the file, regardless of the mount flags.
