EV_EOF on line 19 actually slipped by my fault, original source omits
that one. It doesn't change anything.
EV_EOF = 1 << 15 = 32768. And it _is_ returned when file is feed with
the pipe.
So you mean this is just my false assumption that EOF _should_ occur on
stdin? And it actually occurs only if source is a process which can send
EOF?
