This sounds reasonable because:

http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/000095399/functions/lseek.html

says ESPIPE is OK for ttys, pipes, and sockets.  But I am puzzled how we would
implement a device IO interface to a raw hard disk or /dev/memory if we didn't
have an lseek().

I'm moving this to the list in case someone has some insight that can finesse
this better than I can right now.
