+Subject: [PATCH] main: set the GIOChannel encoding to binary
+
+https://developer.gnome.org/glib/stable/glib-IO-Channels.html#g-io-channel-set-encoding
+says the default encoding is UTF-8, and setting encoding to NULL is safe
+use with binary data.
+
+Actually without setting encoding to NULL, on Fedora 32, trying to terminate pcmanfm with
+Ctrl-C (SIGINT) causes pcmanfm hang at g_io_channel_read_chars() in on_unix_signal(),
+and this is now causing system reboot delayed for 90 seconds with systemd.
