>Description:
When I run the testcase included in PR libstdc++/6750 and type ^D on the
keyboard I get a surprising result. The output from the binary compiled
by gcc 2.95.3 differs from the output by the binary
compiled by gcc 3.1. Maybe the result of the program run is undefined
when ^D is typed in?

>How-To-Repeat:
source code tio.C

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>

#define OUTPUT_FILE	"tio.dat"
#define BUFFSIZ		2048

int main()
{
  using namespace std; 
  char buff[BUFFSIZ];

  ofstream output(OUTPUT_FILE, ios::out);
  if(!output) {
    cerr << "Cannot create " << OUTPUT_FILE << endl;
    exit(1);
  }
  cout << "Output file will be '" << OUTPUT_FILE << "'." << endl;

  cout<<"rdstate before reading from cin: "
      << cin.rdstate() << endl;
  cout<<"good eof fail bad "
      << ios::goodbit << " "
      << ios::eofbit << " "
      << ios::failbit << " "
      << ios::badbit << endl;
	
  cout << "Enter line 1 of 3: ";
  cin.getline(buff, BUFFSIZ);
  output << buff << endl;
  cerr << "cin state: " << cin.rdstate() << endl;
  cerr << "output state: " << output.rdstate() << endl;

  cout << "Enter line 2 of 3: ";
  cin.getline(buff, BUFFSIZ);					       
  output << buff << endl;
  cerr << "cin state: " << cin.rdstate() << endl;
  cerr << "output state: " << output.rdstate() << endl;

  cout << "Enter line 3 of 3: ";
  cin.getline(buff, BUFFSIZ);
  output << buff << endl;
  cerr << "cin state: " << cin.rdstate() << endl;
  cerr << "output state: " << output.rdstate() << endl;
