The FILE objects for the standard streams are static, but the buffers they
use are not: they are malloc'ed the first time someone uses the stream, if
the stream is buffered (take a look at src/libc/ansi/stdio/filbuf.c, for
example). 
Nate explicitly mentioned the buffer used by the stream (see above), that's
why I asked about the standard streams, which most programs never dream about
closing.
