Thanks - I had a 'local $escmode = 0' in the original, which I guess does the unescaping but not the whitespace munging due to scope. The escaping gets rid of the final \r\n, which is what I was after. I've gone with the [- print OUT 'abc' -] version, since the [+ 'abc' +] one includes the final eol from the epl file (if it's there).
