I think I now know what triggered the problem: in the "svn diff",
there was a (new) PDF file that wasn't recognized as binary. So,
basically, the contents of the PDF file were output to the xterm.
And indeed, I can reproduce the problem with a "cat" on various
PDF files.
For instance,
gunzip -c /usr/share/doc/texinfo/txirefcard.pdf.gz
