Owen O'Malley commented on MAPREDUCE-1210:
------------------------------------------
This is a feature. There are text files out there that only use \r as a line
break. In particular old mac files have that format. The most that can be done
is to include a switch to turn it off, but the switch must default to off for
backwards compatibility.
> standalone \r is treated as new line by RecordLineReader

> In PIg 0.6.0 we are switching to RecordLineReader from our own
> implementation. We are seeing differences in record counts that were traced
> down to the fact that standalone \r is treated as line end. I don't think
> there is any precedence for this and we would like to get this resolved so
> that we can use RLR and not break backward compatibility. (This problem was
> detected with real user data.)
