IO.pod:1207 claims that "IO.eof" is gone, to be replaced with
C<IO::Endable>. But I can't seem to find any specification or
documentation on Endable.
So, I'm converting this ticket to a specbug, in hopes that p6l or
someone can sort it out.
If it turns out that IO.eof still exists, then should it continue to
have the Perl 5 behavior of performing a getc/ungetc to check EOF?
