We are trying to discurage the use of CreateStdIO().  Since both of these
are linker libraries, this is no real problem.  Also, CreateStdIO() will
now just do a CreateExtIO() with sizeof(struct IOStdReq)

DeleteStdReq() will also now just call DeleteExtReq() and since the
delete routine knows how big the request is, it will correctly free
the memory.

No, this does not, but there is no such thing as bug-free system documentation.
