Documentation for HTTP::Request::Common states:
If a $file is provided by no Content-Type header, then Content-Type and Content-Encoding will be filled in automatically with the values returned by LWP::MediaTypes::guess_media_type()
Maybe a module upgrade has changed the behaviour of LWP::MediaTypes::guess_media_type() to guess differently for .bin files. Try POSTing with the encoding set explicitly, like 'Content-Type' => 'application/octet-stream'.
To investigate further, use LWP in debug mode as follows and observe the headers:
use LWP::UserAgent();
use LWP::ConsoleLogger::Easy qw( debug_ua );
use HTTP::CookieJar::LWP();
## Create browser object.
my $jar = HTTP::CookieJar::LWP->new;
my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new(
keep_alive=>200,
cookie_jar => $jar,
protocols_allowed => ['http', 'https'],
timeout => 60,
);
debug_ua($ua);
# etc.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
