Yes, but by "different purposes" I was thinking how scan
digs back into the IO buffers. Though maybe that won't
be necessary any more.
I had forgotten about that. Okay, looking at that now .... alright,
that's not as nasty as I thought. All it does is to use the output
stdio buffer as the input buffer for m_getfld() so we can avoid an extra
copy. Can we all agree that's not necessary anymore, and the resulting
performance gain is probably miniscule? If so, I can simply get rid of
that garbage now.
Just one word about performance:
I've removed the ``dig into internal IO buffers'' stuff in March and
noticed no performance loss. See

Ups sorry. That was just one of the several ``dig into interal IO
buffers'' places. Sorry for the noise. :-/
