Subject: ^M in some Windows info files because of null-byte detection
Date: Wed, 3 Sep 2008 18:39:11 +0200

Some info files in Windows (for example, the Emacs FAQ) are displayed
with spurious ^M characters because of recent changes in null byte
detection.

Kenichi Handa proposed a new inhibit-null-byte-detection variable.
Stefan Monnier counter-proposed inhibit-coding-systems.
