If you use some CVS client that commits DOS text files without
stripping CR characters, you shouldn't have the CRs in the files to
begin with.  What editor do you use to create the files?  Does that
editor have an option to created Unix-style files?

Unless the library build procedure is run on a Unix box in cross-build
environment, these extra CR characters shouldn't matter, since
makeinfo reads input in text mode, and our libc removes _all_ CR
characters, not just those before an LF.

That is why I didn't see the problem on my machine, although my CVS
client also adds CR to each LF.
