#73: SVN misclassifying .t files as binary, preventing 'svn blame'

---------------------+------------------------------------------------------
Tonight I tried to get a line-by-line SVN revision history on a '.t' file,
only to be told that SVN had to skip that file because it was a binary:
{{{
$ svn blame t/compilers/imcc/syn/macro.t
Skipping binary file: 't/compilers/imcc/syn/macro.t'
}}}
I hypothesized that this was a problem with all files in the directory,
but there are several that do 'svn blame' without incident.
pmichaud hypothesized that it was the SVN property 'svn:mime-type' which
was set to 'text/plain' and that there may be binary characters within the
file. I couldn't see any (but I'm not an expert with 'od'), but we set
that property on lots of files.
I investigated further. This problem is widespread, at least among files
with names ending in .t.
