Strictly speaking it's not there yet --- psql still doesn't cope with
line endings that are \r only (original Mac OS style). However, since
we do not and probably never will have a port to original Mac OS, I'm
satisfied with the code as-is.

I agree (and did in fact just commit the back-patch a bit ago).
