I don't remember, sorry.  By guessing from the code, that change is to
make DATA a multibyte string so that the encoding done by the following
process-send-string produces the correct byte sequence.  Perhaps, the
change was done before the introduction of string-to-multibyte which is
more suitable for that purpose.
