"-EGADS - violates the principle of least surprise" -- Casey Schaufler

The 'ifdef LINUX_STDIO' in discard.c can probably die, as we seem to have an
fpurge() function in glibc since 2.1.95.  Anybody still running a glibc older
than that deserves to not have nice things.

Not sure what m_getfld.c is doing there.  Something underhanded, I suspect.
