binmode for UNC paths


Hi!

  currently, files like '//server/share/path/to/file' are opened in
text mode, if only '//server/share/path/to/' doesn't belong to any
mount. mounting every share is not always possible, and otherwise
there's no way to make such files to be opened in binary mode.
attached patch uses 'binmode' from CYGWIN environment variable to
determine default mode. Comments?
