Answer 1

It looks like all you have to do is allocate one more byte of memory in which you can place a null ('\0'):

...
memblock = new char[1 + fSize]; 
file.seekg (0, ios::beg);  
file.read (memblock, size);  
file.close();  
memblock[size] = '\0';
...

edit

I changed my code to use fSize in the array rather than size, since it is a GLint, which is just a typedef over an integer. Also, I tried this fix on my machine, and it works as far as I can tell - no junk at the beginning, and none at the end.
