Maybe setting the encoding would make a difference.

The following excerpt from the Glib::IOChannel docs[1] seems relevant:

"Note that IOChannels implement an automatic implicit character set
conversion to the data stream, and usually will not pass by default
binary data unchanged. To set the encoding of the channel, use e.g.
set_encoding("ISO-8859-15"). To set the channel to no encoding, use
set_encoding() without any arguments."
