[pulseaudio-discuss] [PATCH 2/3] pacat: Enable binary mode on Windows.

[kugel at rockbox.org]

From: Thomas Martitz <thomas.martitz at student.htw-berlin.de>

Without this reading from stdin will eventually end with EOF (if there happens
to be a newline sign in the stream), because read() returns 0.

This patch fixes raw data input and piping to pacat on Windows.
