Hi Tobias,
thanks for pointing this out.

I see one problem - this implementation skips all zeroes in *any*
file. There has to be at least condition whether we read stdin.

But I think that this shall be implemented rather in the console
server. This server has two interfaces - a file (where it communicates
with VFS) and a special console interface.

For the file interface (namely VFS_OUT_READ), special characters might
be skipped while they would be returned via the special console
interface (namely CONSOLE_GET_EVENT message).
