Re: catting random bytes causes character craziness
You're saying, "the reason you are suffering is that the binary you are
running was built with --be-stupid=yes. Go recompile."
That's a rather un-emacs-like attitude. A better solution would be for
you to provide a global runtime (setq be-stupid nil) for turning off
stupidity even when stupidity-support is a compile-time option.
