Haojun Bao b94bf79258 fix hang because of infinite loop reading EOF
Read() should return empty string when EOF happen, instead of looping
forever. This is the right semantics of read(), and a wrapped version
should not change it.

If you read the read(2) system call manpage, it tells you that when EOF
is seen, return value is 0; it does not say

	``loop forever when EOF happen''.

After the EOF detection is patched you can see the
following exception:

Bug Fixes
---------
* Fix hang because of infinite loop reading EOF.
* Fix regression (UIBase is no more).
* Make profiling mode really enforce single-threading
Pending for the next major release
==================================
* UIs get shorter and nicer names. (API changing)
Stalled
=======
* Learn Sqlite support.
Stalled: it would need to learn the ability to choose between the current
format and SQL to help testing the long term.
