Subject: File#each_byte returns only the first 300 bytes

Hello, I have the most recent (rc10) version of rubyinstaller for
windows.
everything works fine, except this:
read_bytes returns in text files everything, but in binary files, only
the first 300 bytes.
the snippet i use is

  s = 0
  File.open(fileName) { |f|
    f.each_byte { |ch|
      ch > 127 or (fh[ch] += 1 and s += 1)
    }

What am I doing wrong? Is it a bug? (hard to believe in such a basic
function).

best regards,

niko
