How would that work? The only thing I could imagine is using echo and
manually
building the file by looking at it with a hex editor, but that would
take hours.
Can't copy and paste binary data i don't think.
Do you have a better way? Would definately be useful to know, if you do.

All sorts of ways to do this :)
echo > file.bin
disconnect terminal (without closing pty), and dd binary at the /dev/pts
entry.
If you can bring up uudecode, uudecode - > file.bin
paste uuencoded binary
ctl+c, run
if you can bring up a new ssh session WITHOUT a controlling terminal or
shell (probably possible as that doesn't require spawning anything
special), just use scp
