Comment:

 It wouldnt work since ">>" is blocking so your checks could be OK, but it
 would still sigfaults on the ">>" operand as i mentioned before.

 If the stream is closed while waiting on the >> operand, a modification of
 the library is necessary or there's no other way (i could think of) to
 catch that kind of error.
