Hi Folks,

Been playing with some console apps and it appears that you cannot  
pipe binary data through the stdin/out pipes in console apps at all.  
Non regular characters are truncated and you can't send a null (chr 
(0)) either, which is really vital if you're planning to process any  
binary data at all. It also means that you can't use RB for any CGI  
app that sends anything other than a text MIME type.

I honestly dont know if this was always the case or is only true with  
the current version as I haven't messed around with this in years.

If anybody else wanted to use the console for something that meets  
any of those indications, the bug report I've added onto is here:
