With commit cb139fa8b3a1 ("table: New function table_format() for formatting a table as a string.") a new mechanism for formatting tables was introduced, and the table_print method was refactored to use this.
During that refactor, calls to 'puts' were replaced with 'ds_put_cstr', and table print was changed to use 'fputs(..., stdout)'. Unfortunately, fputs() does not append a newline to the string provided, and changes the output strings of, for example, ovsdb-client dump to print all on one line. This means post-processing scripts that are chained after ovsdb-client would either block indefinitely (if they don't detect EOF), or process the entire bundle at once (rather than seeing each table on a separate line).
