I'm not sure I understand. What I meant above is not "make sure the TeX
process only outputs binary", but really set the `process-coding-system'
of the TeX process such that its output coding-system is `raw-text' or
`binary'. This *should* (aka "module bugs") encusre that the strings passed
to the process filter are unibyte.
If the string goes through a buffer instead of being processed directly from
the process filter, then you should also ensure that this buffer is unibyte.
