This is by design. Even the manual page for file() says it. :)
(Or was this a feature/change request to strip them?)

Using the file function, newlines (\n) are included in the read. The causes odd
behaviour in other functions such as:
mail - If the subject parameter is loaded using the file function, the newline causes
the headers sent using mail to be invalid. In the case of Eudora the header
information is dispalyed in the message and the From field displays the server account
that generated the message - in my case "WWW User".
array_search - All efforts to use this function fail with an array created with the
file function. Only through the following cose will it produce the results expected:
$someArray = str_replace (array("\r", "\n"), '', $someArray);
(Thanks to Zak Greant for this code :)
in_array - Much like array_search, the results are misleading due to the presence of
newlines. A match is never found even though an echo of the array being tested looks
identical to the target string/integer.
