I think that 'undecided should be the default always, not only in

except for eterm "ladder" problem (which of course should be fixed
in eterm - it *wants* untarnaslated CR-LF, so must explicitly claim that).
Basically, a good lisp code should not rely on coding-system-for-*
being 'binary; for example, code which runs zcat in about.el correctly
binds these variables to 'binary.
I concur. Could you apply this patch instead please Steve.
