Attached are the code I wrote back to 2006 when we were struggling 
whether or not to remove
the whole sun.io package. This is only a "prototype" for the proposal, 
so I did not even test it...
yes, I finally dug it out to see what I dealt with back them:-)

X-code(buffer, buffer, boolean) and flush() have different 
role/functionality.

We do have some mapping testing cases for sun.io package, but I've not 
yet pushed them to the
"open" area of JDK7.
