There's the bug.
EOF should only be triggered if a read external to the
stream layer triggered a buffer fill and we could not
read _any_ data to fill the buffer.
This was a case missed by a bugfix for something else (r37310).
Your patch may well fix the playlist parser but leaves
all other users of the stream layer affected still.
Something like below patch should hopefully fix it properly
(not sure if it's exactly the best way though):
