That bit me a while back, hard enough that I thought of putting
together a patch for it (probably just to stop processing the script
at a NUL byte), but never did as I didn't think I could put a
convincing enough case for it being *useful*.

Anyway, I'd be happy enough with the -z patch as it stands, or if
someone comes up with something better, that would suit me too...
