Notice that comments above BufFileSize() say "Return the current
fileset based BufFile size". There are numerous identical assertions
at the start of several other functions within the same file.
I'm not sure what it would take for this function to support
OpenTemporaryFile()-based BufFiles -- possibly not very much at all. I
assume that that's what you're actually interested in doing here (you
didn't say). If it is, you'll need to update the function's contract
-- just removing the assertion isn't enough.
