Patch 01-03 are ok.  For this code here we should have a comment describing
what we do in _fflush_r only.  The comment here in _fflush_unlocked_r
should point to the comment in fflush_r instead.   Both comments should
clearly point out that a change requires to change both files.

Except for this comment issue, patch 04 is ok.


Thanks,
