Hi,

on Win32, the open with o_binary don't seem to work, as the testsuites 
are failing. Forcing with setmode in decoder.cc readblock and writeblock 
makes it pass.

I have attached a patch that shows my quick and dirty changes.

Possibly there is a text mode file descriptor leaking in. Any ideas?
