How about opening it in binary mode? I would historically use a binmode after opening, but in 5.8 I should be able to use :raw or something like that. When I tried once, I spent a few minutes trying to make it work, and went back to the old way. What's the polished form of the idiom that uses the new syntax for binary files?
