Fixed in 03fcf93bff9f02a3d12ab86be4e67b996310aad4 (not particularly
elegant, but I couldn’t think of a better way.)  The test in that commit
captures the initial problem.

I’m marking this bug as “done”.  If you would like to discuss string
port encodings, separate binary/textual ports, or any other significant
change, you’re welcome to do so on guile-devel <at> gnu.org, of course.

Thanks!

Ludo’.
