 * @struct membuff: holds the state of a membuff - it is used for input and
 * output buffers. The buffer extends from @start to (@start + @size - 1).
 * Data in the buffer extends from @tail to @head: it is written in at
 * @head and read out from @tail. The membuff is empty when @head == @tail
 * and full when adding another character would make @head == @tail. We
 * therefore waste one character in the membuff to avoid having an extra flag
 * to determine whether (when @head == @tail) the membuff is empty or full.
