The problem is with non-MiNT systems. 

Quoting Christian,

"If a program do output via fputc() and you run it unter !MiNT
(plain TOS or MagiC) it produces wrong new-lines.

   hello
        hello"

This feature caused on the patch which you have added to fputc() on 4. Jan 
1998. Before you have add this patch the behaviour of \n depends on UNIXMODE: 
if it was not set you got only \n but if you set UNIXMODE=b you got \r\n.
Why do you have change this thing?? "

The way fputc was before, (systematically inserting \r before
all lone \n), still seems wrong to me...  but I would revert to
if it were the only way to go.
