/* Assuming the stream STREAM is open for reading:

   Read and discard OFFSET bytes from STREAM.

   freadseek (STREAM, OFFSET) is the same as
   fseek (STREAM, OFFSET, SEEK_CUR), except that the latter does not work
   on non-seekable input streams (such as pipes).

   Upon success, return 0.
   Upon premature end of stream, return 0 (like fseek does).
   Upon error, set the error indicator in the stream and return EOF.

   STREAM must not be wide-character oriented.  */
