That was it, or at least sort of. Thank heavens I always test before I
post, because I was going to smugly comment that I'm using freebsd *but*
I tried switching to \r and noticed that the added <br> moved from one
line to the other. So I whipped up
$fout = ereg_replace("(\n|\r)+","<br>",$fin) ;
and it works -- there must actually be \r\n there -- and I'll work
backwards from there (I'll use an expression like the above to robustly
handle by-god-anything that comes in!) to get rid of these temp variables.

Thanks a *bunch*!
