--- Comment #1 from oliver at beefrankly.org ---
Don't know if you are fooling around but in case you aren't: 

Binary data can always mess up your terminal as there may be control characters
in it, which your terminal interprets. 

You need to use "cat -v" when displaying binary files or call "reset" or "stty
sane" afterwards to clean up your terminal. This may work. 

if you need to see binary data use xxd etc.

This is not a bug.
