It doesn't have it because the binary attribute is an ANSIism more recent than
the version of fopen() in the library.  You won't find it in many Unix versions
of fopen(), for that matter, because the main reason it's there is to let
systems that have CRLF as line terminator do appropriate translation so that to
C programs, lines appear to end with the single character represented by '\n'.
