This bug is also present in sarge, and I'm currently being bit quite hard by
it in my own program; I do about the same thing as the W3C validator
(Perl-wise) to ensure the HTML I spit out is valid during the debugging phase
of a web application, and every single time onsgmls is only capable of reading
the first 4 kB. (Worse still, the problem doesn't show up under strace when I
test it, nor does it show up more than about 50% of the time when using grep
--line-buffered ".*" testfile.html.)

I have no idea what the resolution would be, but this should IMHO be fixed in
stable; onsgmls is rather broken as long as it can't read properly from a
line-buffered pipe. :-)
