Thank you.

Actually, I see now that, while your patch is going in the right
direction, the problem is deeper.  E.g. M-x find-file-literally RET
foo.tar.gz RET does the right thing but M-x revert-buffer RET in it
ignores the "literally" part and gives you a tar-mode view of the file.
I.e. revert-buffer should probably pay attention to the
`find-file-literally' variable, and hexl-mode should then make use of it
as well.
