Question about reading IFS text files with C read

I am trying to read a text file on the IFS with the C routines. I used Scott Klement's "Working with the IFS in RPG IV" document as my starting point.

The problem I am having is that it seems to be skipping the first two byes of the file. Here is my code

dcl-s temp char(32700) inz;

xmlfd = open(path:O_RDONLY+O_TEXTDATA);
if xmlfd < *zero;
die('open(xmlread) read: '+%str(strerror(errno)));
endif;

//------------------------------------------------------------
// Read eApp XML file
//------------------------------------------------------------
%subst(temp:1:32700) = *blank;
count = read(xmlfd:%addr(temp):32700);

After the read is executed, in debug mode, I look at temp and it is missing the first two bytes of the file.

What am I doing wrong?
