If it's host-specific code, perhaps.  But it's better if nobody needs
to know whether or not O_BINARY is available; they only need to know
if it's *appropriate*.  If the file is binary, use O_BINARY.  If it is
text, don't.  On platforms where O_BINARY is zero, it does nothing,
but does prevent yet another needless host test.
