Subject: Re: 1.9 CSV Parsing Issues

File.read shows "field1,field2\nfield3,field4\n"
I have played around with the some of the other methods and have
determined that this problem only seems to occur when using CSV::open
and then looped through with CSV::each.  CSV::foreach and CSV::parse
seem fine.  Unfortunately, I need to use CSV::open because I need a
reference to the opened file object in order to do some file cursor
manipulation.

Other things I have noted is that when running CSV.open('file','r') the
result is show:
<#CSV io_type:File io_path:"/log/test.log" encoding:CP850 lineno:0
col_sep:"," row_sep:"\r\n" quote_char:"\"">

While CSV.open('test.log','r',:row_sep => '\r\n') shows result:
<#CSV io_type:File io_path:"/log/test.log" encoding:CP850 lineno:0 
col_sep:"," row_sep:"\\r\\n" quote_char:"\"">

The double backslashes make me question if the escape character is being
processed correctly.  I am relatively new to Ruby, am I using the
language incorrectly or is this a bug?
