Do yourself a favor and simply add a '--output ofile' or '-o ofile'
option and just use that instead of writing to standard output. 
Make life a little easier (that patch I had sent had an example of
that -- see ppm_openw).

If you want to use file redirection or piping and get the right output,
you'll need to do what you suggest above. Just stick the setmode before 
any write to stdout.
  
  fflush (stdout);
  setmode (fileno (stdout), O_BINARY);

or, you can use binary mounts.
