Well, I use binary mode mounts but have some textmode mounts for
testing.

I took the textfile from the attachment which has actually two \r\n at
the end which are 78 bytes at all:

$ expand textfile.txt
This is a text file created with Notepad.
It has DOS (CRLF) line endings.

$ od -Ad -tc textfile.txt
0000000   T   h   i   s       i   s       a       t   e   x   t       f
0000016   i   l   e       c   r   e   a   t   e   d       w   i   t   h
0000032       N   o   t   e   p   a   d   .  \r  \n   I   t       h   a
0000048   s       D   O   S       (   C   R   L   F   )       l   i   n
0000064   e       e   n   d   i   n   g   s   .  \r  \n  \r  \n
0000078

This is on a textmode mount and I see the same on a binmode mount.

It seems that you have updated Cygwin to 1.5.12, but you have not
updated fileutils/sh-utils/textutils, please install coreutils to
replace all these three packages.
