I run the all-time hello-world program to print a 1 line
"Hello world\n".  On Unix, it gives, as expected, the following:

	% a.out
	Hello world!
	% _

But in DOS, running a.exe gives:

	C:\Work>a
	Hello world!

	C:\Work>_

(where '_' indicates cursor position)

So there is one extra newline after the program's printing.
Piping the output to a text file such as "C:\Work\a > t.out"
similarly generated an extra newline in "t.out".

How'bout a fix on this?
