I've done some preliminary testing, seems to work (updated patch
is against master, but most of the relevant changes seem to have
happened during the emacs 23.x time frame anyway)
It's currently controlled by a defcustom, but maybe it should be
a prefix arg to hexl-find-file or hexl-mode instead? I don't
use hexl a huge amount myself so I'm not sure what its users
would prefer.
