[PATCH] cygutils:conv.c: Prevent truncation of file if 0xFF is encountered

[Pavel Tsekov <ptsekov at gmx dot net>]

Hello ;)

Today a colleague of mine was struck by a bug of dos2unix/unix2dos
utilities i.e. if the code encounters 0xFF in the file being processed
it erronously thinks that this is the EOF and stops processing. The
result is that the original file is truncated to the position of the
0xFF character.

As to why we have such characters in source file - our mother language
is bulgarian and we sometimes still type comments in it :)

A patch is attached to fix this behaviour.
