I thought about '-f -' but when reading a regular file, I would probably
parse only the first word because both /etc/signature and /etc/mtree/set.*
have multiple fields. Also, set.base has quite amusing entries:
veriexecgen: Cannot stat file `./bin/\133': No such file or directory
veriexecgen: Cannot stat file `./rescue/\133': No such file or directory
In summary, -i for reading whole lines from stdin (do we need to
recognise -print0, btw?), '-f file' for parsing fields in regular
files.
