Comment:

 Thanks teor. Looked into this for a while but seems we can't safely
 convert non-seekable streams like stdin into buffered streams. Adjusted
 the exception to hopefully provide a more helpful message. See the commit
 message for all the details.

 Feel free to reopen if there's a better way for us to handle this.
