+/* Read a hunk of data from FD, up until a terminator.  The hunk is
+   limited by whatever the TERMINATOR callback chooses as its
+   terminator.  For example, if terminator stops at newline, the hunk
+   will consist of a line of data; if terminator stops at two
+   newlines, it can be used to read the head of an HTTP response.
+   Upon determining the boundary, the function returns the data (up to
+   the terminator) in malloc-allocated storage.
+
+   In case of read error, NULL is returned.  In case of EOF and no
+   data read, NULL is returned and errno set to 0.  In case of having
+   read some data, but encountering EOF before seeing the terminator,
+   the data that has been read is returned, but it will (obviously)
+   not contain the terminator.
+
+   The TERMINATOR function is called with three arguments: the
+   beginning of the data read so far, the beginning of the current
+   block of peeked-at data, and the length of the current block.
+   Depending on its needs, the function is free to choose whether to
+   analyze all data or just the newly arrived data.  If TERMINATOR
+   returns NULL, it means that the terminator has not been seen.
+   Otherwise it should return a pointer to the charactre immediately
+   following the terminator.
 
    The idea is to be able to read a line of input, or otherwise a hunk
    of text, such as the head of an HTTP request, without crossing the
    boundary, so that the next call to fd_read etc. reads the data
    after the hunk.  To achieve that, this function does the following:
 
-   1. Peek at available data.
+   1. Peek at incoming data.
 
    2. Determine whether the peeked data, along with the previously
       read data, includes the terminator.
