Here's the problem, under Windows:

irb(main):001:0> f = File.open('x',binmode:true)
ArgumentError: both textmode and binmode specified
from (irb):1:in initialize' from (irb):1:in open'
from (irb):1
from D:/prog/Ruby/bin/irb:12:in `'

Under Windows, if File#open has a ':binmode => true' opt, and without a mode string, it will raise such exception.

open('x','r',binmode:true) is OK

Under Linux, there is no such problem, File.open('x',binmode:true) is ok

Yusuke, assigning to Hiroshi Shirosaki who is more familiar with File IO.

This issue is fixed at trunk. This seems a duplicate of Bug #6055.
