This happened to me too with some files, and it is the main reason
that stopped me from releasing a Simple (file) Transfer Protocol I
wrote. I did no more have time to investigate, and I thought the
fault was in my code --- but now it seems to be somewhere else,
perhaps in READ-IO itself?

To me it happened with specific files. Anyway, it surely isn't
very deterministic...
If I find some free time (unlikely :( ), I'll try to investigate
and let you all know.
