That would mean a separate release for Windows, which is precisely the 
thing that I want to avoid.

A file with \n end-of-lines won't look good in notepad. I don't care 
about this. Do you know any other particular reason for having \r\n 
end-of-lines for Windows (as in "foo will not work otherwise"), or is it 
purely "just because it's Windows-style"?
