I understand the desire but it's s a pretty tricky problem.  awk is
used to manipulate text input in the first place so it treats all
input, files as well as stdin, as text.  So, shall we drop this
behaviour for files only?  Or for stdin as well?  How many existing
setups are bound to fail after a change?
