I think the ANSI C standard is quite specific with this. \n does not
necessarily translate to directly to one character but means anything that
moves the cursor to the beginning of the next line. On DOS and related
systems this would be CRLF (some compilers I tested, however, didn't
operate in this way which was extremely annoying for porting software).
For MiNT we need to choose which we want and then stick with it.
