There actually are newlines there in some ways the log is viewed. So

I'm not quite sure what you're suggesting.  I had a look with emacs, and I'm 
pretty sure there are no special characters in there. Perhaps I'm 
misunderstanding you.

My "~/.racket/planet/300/5.1/INSTALL-LOG" on GNU/Linux contains *zero* LF or CR characters, despite reflecting a few PLaneT packages having been installed.

First guess: someone is getting the log text line-by-line without newlines, and forgetting to add the newlines when sending the lines to the log file.

If Robby means that his log contains LF and/or CR characters, maybe he's using a different Racket version, or is on a different host platform.
