Looks OK to me. I'm not sufficiently familiar with how we usually
handle bumping into the EOF pseudo-character while reading to be sure
it's the very best way to deal with it, but it looks sane and safe.
BTW, in a non-debug build, the problem manifests itself in the detail of
the error we signal, where `M-: #0 RET` will signal an error
mentioning "#0\377" where the \377 is the "reification" of the -1
EOF pseudo-character.
