Portability problems not fixed by Gnulib:

• This function is removed in POSIX.1-2024. Use the function fgets instead.
• This function should never be used, because it can overflow any given buffer.
• This function is missing on some platforms: OpenBSD 6.7, Solaris 11.4.
• When reading from a non-blocking pipe whose buffer is empty, this function fails with errno being set to EINVAL instead of EAGAIN on some platforms: mingw, MSVC 14.
• On Windows platforms (excluding Cygwin), this function does not set errno upon failure.
