I don't understand what it has to do with anything.  Your proposed
change (which I've already made) will still work.  It will just require
that executables be relinked before there is any change.

To answer the question, no I don't think this calls for a binmode.o
solution.  That would just lend to exactly the kind of confusion that
Larry was cautioning against.
