Can you provide more details regarding the chain of calls mentioned in

If you use add-variable-watcher to watch any changes to
coding-system-for-read, does that allow to tell where does it get set
to 'binary' in this recipe?

I don't think this is viable, and not only for Windows, because
there isn't sufficient context at this point to decide which encoding
to use. This must be decided at a higher level, specifically where
coding-system-for-read is set to 'binary'.

That'd be a kludge in my book: working around our own bugs, instead of
fixing them.

Setting coding-system-for-read to nil is not a good idea. How do you
know what that means, and how it will affect the called process?
Thanks.
