	I suspect the page/line aspects are too baked into the definition of
Text_IO itself. It's defined to work on systems that perform record
oriented I/O, and hence don't use stream oriented <eol> markers. Systems
might use hidden <length>text... formats, fixed width formats (card
readers), etc. so the runtime for each system has to map into that concept.
