  Yes, 2.95.3 had a problem with CR+LF line ends; yes, it has been fixed in
3.0.something, I think the new preprocessor took care of it.

  In fact IIRC, even in 2.95.x it was only a problem on continuation lines,
because the code that looked for backslash-LF and concatenated the lines
didn't recognize the sequence backslash-CR-LF, but all other source lines
were ok with CR-LF line ends.

  But yeh, it's an old and long-gone problem these days.

    cheers,
