And also line number don't get incremented if there are no line ends, so
all syntax errors are reported as being on line 1.
The issue might have never come up if the code used "r" mode for opens
rather that "rb", since the file are 'text' files. On platforms that
don't used embedded newline characters as the record delimiters, the
implementation of fread is responsible for mapping the underlying file
format to cannonical form (i.e. \n's delimiting lines).
