Bug description:  inconsistency in manual and src, possible nonstandard EOL character?

Description:
------------
>From the PHP source (ext/standard/mail.c:215):

fprintf(sendmail, "To: %s\n", to);
fprintf(sendmail, "Subject: %s\n", subject);
if (headers != NULL) {
  fprintf(sendmail, "%s\n", headers);
}
fprintf(sendmail, "\n%s\n", message);

>From the manual (http://us4.php.net/manual/en/function.mail.php):

Note:  You must use \r\n to separate headers, although some Unix mail
transfer agents may work with just a single newline (\n).

The source and the manual seem to differ in their treatment of newlines.

We were alerted to this problem by a customer's mail server, which is
having trouble parsing "\r\n" (which is the RFC standard, right?).

Expected result:
----------------
550 error on remote SMTP server
