I just tried it. That's correct, at least for 2.91.66 and I believe all
"earlier" versions too.
IIRC, '\r' is defined as "white-space" and should be equivalent to a space.

Hi Thomas,
Heres what I found about CVS and CR/LF in Win/DOS in the
"How to store binary files" node of the cvs info file:
There are two issues with using CVS to store binary files. The first is
that CVS by default convert line endings between the canonical form in
which they are
If I remember correctly, in the newer WinCVS versions, there is an
option:
Admin-preferences
tab which gives you the option of checking out ASCII files with the Unix
LF. Check the box. I believe that there is a more complete answer to
this at http://www.cvshome.org.
I hope that this helps.
I may be wrong, but I believe the GNU compiler ignores \r in the source
code. The only place I've ever seen compilation fail because of \r is if
the Makefile itself has \r in it.
