 ** put-u8 now always writes a single byte, regardless of the port encoding.
 
 Previously, (put-u8 PORT OCTET) worked as expected only when writing to
-binary ports, i.e. those with port encoding "ISO-8851-1".  Strictly
-speaking, this meets the requirements of the R6RS 'put-u8', which need
-only support binary ports.  However, Guile in fact allows binary I/O to
-be performed on any port, and yet 'put-u8' behaved in a surprising way
-with other port encodings: it would perform a _textual_ I/O operation,
-writing the character with Unicode scalar value OCTET.  Now, 'put-u8'
-always writes a single byte with value OCTET, regardless of the port
-encoding.
