Subject: printf "\n"|perl -pe '1;'|od -a #perl 5.8 converts to *DOS* text :-<
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: Text/Plain; charset=US-ASCII

--------
IMHO the perl v5.6.0 that came w/1.3.20 worked correctly.
In the test case below perl 5.8.0 is converting UNIX text to 
DOS text - (this is breaking our old scripts).

Comments please.

thanks/regards,
