That's quite weird. We just trust whatever Python's universal newline
reader tells us, and only do any EOL manipulation if that's set.
Anywhere that we don't know what kind of line ending to insert, we
fall back to unix-style.

There isn't a config option, no. It should just work. I can give you
the hacky option, which is to remove the whole "if bufdata.newlines:"
block from FileDiff.save_file().

Unfortunately I don't currently have a way of debugging OSX problems,
so there's not a lot I can do about this at the moment. If anyone else
has experience using Meld on OSX, any comments would be great.

cheers,
Kai
