Bug in od, cat, etc reading binary files

[Joe Peterson]

Sorry if this is documented somewhere, but I could not find mention of
it.  I find that when, for example, using "od" to look at a binary file,
if a ctrl-Z is encountered, the reading stops.  This is because the
fopen presumably does a "r" rather than a "rb" (a pc-ism).

Other programs like "cat" and possibly others have this problem as
well...
