Hi everyone!
In t/src/io.c, specifically test 9 and 10, I wonder if the PIO_eof check up
works anywhere; because I didn't manage to find any place where the
PIO_F_EOF flag is set up when the PIO_*_open function fails neither
in io_stdio.c, io_unix.c nor io_win32.c
Is the io == NULL testing

We could try to keep the opcode count down by simply having a seed
opcode and an opcode to produce n random bytes... Anyone who wants
more specific ranges could do the modulus and addition themselves.
The modulus/addition trick is very common but

start/end pairs does the same thing, only what gets frozen is a series of
pairs (key/value things) rather than individual entries. And yes, I
