I got it working in a standalone program. Now to work on integrating it into 
libc...

I used __file_handle_modes to store the required flag so that was no problem. 
I also have a function to zero fill the space that is to be filled. Where 
should this function go? I'm thinking src/libc/dos/io but a confirmation 
would be good before I start touching files.

Also, the fcntl patch adds lfilelength which my fill function uses. I believe 
that patch is close to being done, correct?
