From The RT System itself

The test has been removed because there appears to be no way to make
the behavior completely portable.

Perl will still attempt to seek-and-flush before duping a handle,
but whether your stdio will cooperate or not is unspecified.

It is a crying shame that ANSI did not specify a way to force the
"flushing" of input handles to avoid buffering headaches. Does
anyone know if C9X does anything about this?
