There is an easier workaround:

    binmode($t, ":bytes")

Using that instead of ":raw" will do what you want and cause your tests to pass.

Strangely:

C:\david\tmp>perl -MPerlIO -wE "binmode STDOUT; say for
PerlIO::get_layers(STDOUT)"
unix
crlf

But further investigation with get_layers() and detail => 1 reveals
that crlf just has different flags set depending on whether binmode
(raw) is called on STDOUT or not.
