  Log:
  Revision 1.61 changed the allocation of buffer 'buf' in DoFile() from
  the stack to the heap to work around a problem on ia64. Now, roughly
  16 months and two compiler updates later, it isn't an issue anymore
  in the sense that putting a 1M buffer on the stack just works and we
  don't actually need to work around anything anymore.
  However, since there's no advantage or need to put the buffer on the
  stack (again), this change merely removes the XXX comment describing
  that there's an explicit reason for the heap allocation. Hence, this
  change is a functional no-op.
