Before Netpbm 10.27 (March 2005), these would return failure on EOF
or I/O failure. For backward compatibility, they still have the return
code, but it is always zero and the routines abort the program in case
of EOF or I/O failure. A program that wants to handle failure differently
must use lower level (C library) interfaces. But that level of detail
is uncharacteristic of a Netpbm program; the ease of programming that
comes with not checking a return code is more Netpbm.
It is also for historical reasons that these return signed values,
when clearly unsigned would make more sense.
