DESCRIPTION
     The  explain_ungetc_or_die  function  is  used to call the ungetc(3) system

     the  explain_ungetc(3) function, and then the process terminates by calling
     exit(EXIT_FAILURE).

     The explain_ungetc_on_error function is used to call the  ungetc(3)  system
     call.  On	failure  an explanation will be printed to stderr, obtained from
     the explain_ungetc(3) function, but still returns to the caller.

     c	     The c, exactly as to be passed to the ungetc(3) system call.

     not return.

     wrapped ungetc(3) system call.

     ilar to the following example:
