  Modified files:
    lib/libstand         close.c lseek.c open.c read.c stand.h 
  Log:
  Implement readahead buffering for non-raw files.  This drastically improves
  the efficiency of byte-by-byte read operations on filesystems not already
  supported by the block cache (especially NFS).
  
  This should be a welcome change for users booting via PXE, as the loader
  now reads its startup files almost instantly, instead of taking tens of
  seconds.
