I'm agree with Eli's answer. It should be not a good idea to do this.
One solution should be the following:

If you open an info file, open it in text mode, read the file completely
in a buffer with read or fread, which conerts the CR/LF automaticaly
to LF. This needs a large enough buffer in memory but I think most
users, who use DJGPP and RHIDE have enough of it and most files are not so
large.
