Again, naming this 'length' makes more sense (you're not skipping TO a
particular offset, but OVER a given length).

I guess that means we allow passing skipCb=NULL to deregister a
callback; does it need to be specifically documented?  Are there
scenarios where you WANT to deregister before closing something else, to
make sure that a stale callback is not called during a race scenario?

I might have omitted the () around stream->skipCb, but I don't know if
we have a consistent style, and yours makes it obvious that we know we
are dereferencing a function pointer.

Worth keeping sorted?
