Sure I meant LF->CRLF

I didn't say it belongs to fputc(), I just think it would be OK if
simple printf("1\n2") would do the expected thing under TOS.

As I pointed out: the same object code linked with PureC libs does
different thing than when linked with MiNTlibs. That should be fixed in
MiNTlibs, not by rewritting every possible source code.
