SEEK_END with WHENCE on binary stream : <p>I'm confused by this statement, from <a href="http://knking.com/books/c2/index.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">C Programming: A Modern Approach, 2nd Edition</a> on Page 446,</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>For binary streams, <code>fseek</code> isn't required to support calls in which whence is <code>SEEK_END</code></p>
</blockquote>

<p>Why is that? That seems like weird stipulation.</p>
