i ran into that as well, a solution is (cont-new.tex):

\let\normalstartreadingfile\startreadingfile
\let\normalstopreadingfile \stopreadingfile

\def\startreadingfile
  {\normalstartreadingfile
   \pushendofline
   \restoreendofline}

\def\stopreadingfile
  {\popendofline
    \normalstopreadingfile}

but i did patch something more fundamental (i forgot what/where, i leave 
that for taco to uncover when i update)
