In vim, in NORMAL mode you can move the cursor over the character and
use the command  ga  to query the character under the cursor.

Here, I get:
<^@>  0,  Hex 00,  Octal 000
, which says that it's a nul terminator.

You might have missed some part of the multipart POST spec, or some
translation that FastCGI does for you.
