  • I noticed there were 4 calls to FileHande->new() to open files, but only 3 calls to binmode()
  • The function missing the binmode() call was writeAr(); this is responsible for writing a modified archive to disk, or creating a brand new archive
  • Archives are allowed to contain binary files so enabling binmode() here seems like a good idea
  • I didn't test this on Windows but I didn't see any regression with patch applied on Linux
%cc a.c
%perl ar -qv A.a a.out # create new archive with just the binary a.out
a - a.out
