Comment (by Kazutoshi Satoda <k_satoda@…>):

 > But I still see a problem with the path, specifically, when handling
 EOF.

 A value `char(EOF)`, which become equal to `EOF` after integer promotion
 if `EOF` is representable by char, in a string should never be treated
 as end of file in the first place.

 This patch will somewhat cure that case, too.
