Apparently I wan't clear enough in my append.... My PIPE was meant to show how a RAW RDR file looks like. PIPE didn't mangle anything, it shows the mess created by SENDFILE, exactly as it sits in the VM spool. Not a complete mess, because PEEK, RECEIVE, NETDATA, ... know how to unmangle. If SENDFILE would not create that "mess", it could never send file wider than 80 bytes in the spool.
