Yes, your patch which worked well for 0.95 was 95-zsh6.diff.

I tried to send a 400kilobyte tar.gz file. The Gcc copy and the copy
which the receiver got were identical:

    mike@nozomi ~$ diff tcl8.1-info.tar.gz-gcc tcl8.1-info.tar.gz-receiver

but differed from the original. The only differences are that 0x0d
has been replaced by 0x0a:

    mike@nozomi ~$ cmp -l tcl8.1-info.tar.gz-gcc tcl8.1-info.tar.gz > cmp.out

    mike@nozomi ~$ head cmp.out
        66  12  15
       552  12  15
       694  12  15
       748  12  15
      1133  12  15
      1293  12  15
      1386  12  15
