Changing f->rpos is not valid here; it would corrupt the state of the
FILE for furher use after the shgetc phase is done. This is especially
important if we reached the code due to shlim being hit, but I think
it also matters for __uflow failing; normally the FILE is left in read
mode, with rpos and rend pointers valid. If we were going to zero
rpos, we would also have to zero rend, taking it out of read mode, but
this does not seem desirable.
Rather, I think f->shend should be set to f->rpos, not 0. Does this
sound right?
