That is just one of the reasons I prefer Unison 1.8.1 over 2.2, or even 
any of the v.2 releases.
I find alt.binaries.pictures.aviation to be the NG where binary issues 
are most annoying with Unison 2.2.

I use TB from time to time, but for now I just use Unison 1.8.1 or 2.2 
depending on how the mood takes me.
