Seems to me that this is penalising Windows users for bugs on other OSes.

Having the wrong EOLs on Windows makes it difficult to read the text
files, because they tend to show up as a single long line.


Only if you use notepad.
Anyone interested in compiling sources will probably
use more advanced editor.


Obviously, files that are intended only for use on Unix should still
have EOL=LF.
Should be quite easy in this case, as the source files are in
different parts of the directory tree.


But that is exactly how it's done now.
Please double check the .zip file. Windows dir *has* DOS line endings.
