 Not sure why you want an int for first argument to 'ungetc' -- Harbison&Steele
 report char, not int (page 316). Also, the stream must have been opened for
 input and buffered, and one character must already have been read to be pushed
 back. Perhaps you were concerned about the return-value, which is (int) c. Al-
 so, trying to push EOF has no effect and just returns EOF as value.
