In case you're using bash: It has cat built-in, which can fail with the  
cat - -thing.

#echo 1 >1
#echo 2 >2
#cat 1 | cat - 2
#/bin/cat 1 | /bin/cat - 2
1
2

Or your cat is too old. I cannot see that it can come from the filesystem.

You can mkdir the multibyte-directory and cvs co or up (don't remember)  
from there. Make sure to remove the .P-files for the multibyte-functions.
