I would say you'll have problems if an only if you mix pointers
- on transformed streams
- and on OS-native line-end transparent streams...
You'll have to arrange to either:
- always used a transformed stream
- or always use a native line-end transparent stream.

New utilities in Pharo and Squeak #linesDo: etc... works on any CR,
LF, CRLF conventions, even mixed conventions in a single file at an
acceptable runtime cost.
That may help...
