binary data in xml output with nmap-4.20 on windows xpsp2

This was from the installer package. Scan executed approximately as:

nmap -P0 -sX -A -PA -PU -F -O -v -T5 -oX baz.xml -excludefile
excludes.txt 192.168.91.4-254

On my screen here, I see (after bar.foo) a capital O with a hat on
it, a 3/4 sign, a control-R, closed by the quotes. XML parsers
aren't liking this. The hostname, e.g. "bar.fooxxx.com" is
incomplete.

I've seen this several times.

<taskend task="Service scan" time="1168655332" />
<<taskbegin task="RPCGrind Scan against bar.fooԾ^R" time="1168655369" />
<taskend task="RPCGrind Scan against bar.fooԾ^R" time="1168655369" />
<host><status state="up" />
<address addr="192.168.91.73" addrtype="ipv4" />
