OK - That probably explains things.   0x0A is ascii Line-Feed
I suspect that this (and maybe 0x0D - Carriage-Return) are probably
being regarded as "non-printable" characters, and hence triggering
the hex conversion.

Maybe we should tweak the hex-test code to allow these through?

But the first thing is to test this hypothesis.   I'm off on holiday next
week (and then it's the start of University term!) so it would  be useful
if somebody else could tackle this, and propose a patch.
