At some point between v5.6 and 5.8 Perl started to assume its input,
output and filehandles are UTF-8. This breaks the counting of bytes
for the CVS protocol, resulting in the client expecting less data
than we actually send, and storing truncated files.
Thanks.  Will queue for both maint and master.
