Here's a proof of concept patch which lets the
test cases "work" due to buffering.

What it doesn't do is handle writes larger than
BUFSIZE, and this limitation is not communicated up
from the stream library to the record length, and also
not the other way. This would break the abstraction
(but maybe we would not care, would we?)
