This is an old feature, so I wonder why it starts causing problems
just now.
It is also used for embedded images in Info files:
address@hidden src="BINARYFILE" text="TXTFILE" alt="ALTTEXT ... address@hidden
so with a lot of images the percentage of null-bytes may be too high.
The Info reader correctly treats the coding cookie, so one solution
is to write it to all Info files, but this does help with existing
files.
But I still doesn't understand the problem with address@hidden in Info files.
