There is actually a difference between the two, because np.loadtxt opens
the file with open(..., 'U'), which means that newlines might be
interpreted differently (because of difference between linux/windows/mac
newlines using \n, \r, etc. So the problem is that newlines are
interpreted wrong for you if you open with just the default mode.
