Hi,
try and create a 1-byte binary file with the following command
printf "\xff" > log
and you'll obviously get the wanted file
-rw-rw-rw- 1 VitiD 5 1 Jun 13 17:13 log
now visit it using the hexl-mode and...
00000000: 81ff ..
It happens both under linux and under windows NT with Emacs 20.7.1
and seems to happen with values >= 0xa0
Hope this helps
Davide

Cc: bug-gnu-emacs
A random guess: try
(setq default-enable-multibyte-characters nil)
Or update to Emacs 21.2.1 where it doesn't happen.

This is a known bug in Emacs 20.x; fixed in Emacs 21.1 and later.
Thanks for reporting this, though.

You should be able to find it on ftp.gnu.org, in the gnu/windows/emacs
directory.
