Comment(by legutierr):

 First, a correction.  Above, I write that calling "cat -A
 ''<datastorefilename>'' >> tmp.txt", and then opening tmp.txt in Browse
 prints something that it in fact does not.  Instead, calling "echo 'test:
 ' >> tmp.txt; cat ''<datastorefilename>'' >> tmp.txt" will produce the
 following result:
 {{{
 test:
 ÿþ<�h�1�>�5�6�3�9�<�/�h�1�>�
 }}}
 Regarding this being a dup[licate, #2005 does seem to point to this issue,
 but it looks like it was closed without resolution 3 months ago.  I assume
 that the freeze on the g1g1 shipment was well after that.  Otherwise, from
 scanning Browse's closed and active bugs, I don't see anything similar to
 this.
