Older versions of Sun C compilers would refuse to compile code with Windows-style line endings. I don't know if that is still the case. One reason to run check is to see if there are any platform-dependencies in code on CRAN so the warning should not be suppressed. (The S+ package system tries to avoid the problem by changing line endings on text files when it compiles the package. It is not trivial to reliably figure out which files are meant to be text files.)
