Agree, but how to set stdout into binary mode, any examples?

I could have a try if someone tells me how to do it :-)

Problem fixed :-)

Found it in wiretap/file_access.c, where it was missing a setmode call in the wtap_dump_fdopen() function, which is used by tethereal. Ethereal itself uses wtap_dump_open() which already addressed that problem.

I've also added a test case to the regression tests.
