What's the problem, exactly?  (I don't have the sources to look right
now.)  IIRC, makeinfo reads input in text mode, so it should be
oblivious to the EOL format.  Did that change somehow?  Or did
someone add code that, once again, relies on stat to return the exact
number of bytes as would be read by `read' or `fread'?

Thanks for the heads-up, your notes will come in handy when I port
the pretest (hopefully, soon).
