If you use STREAM_$GET_REC to read a 10-character record into a 7-character
buffer, it's supposed to set the RETLEN parameter to -3 to let you know
that there's more data in the record.  It fails to do this if you're
running a remote process and reading from standard input; RETLEN is simply
set to 7.
