   YOu have lost me here, what do you mean when you say that functions to
   explicitly control the buffering are part of the speciication. Yes
   there is flush, but that's it ...


There are the functions  fflush,setbuf, setvbuf and the constants  _IOFBF,
_IOLBF, _IONBF, and BUFSIZ. Look them up if you aren't familiar with
stdio.

Btw., I admire your urge to reduce the bandwidth by only quoting
selected parts of messages, but on the other hand, you constantly run
the risk of looking like a smartass who likes quoting people out of context.
