Thank you everyone for the excellent replies.
As someone noticed, my original complaint was that the parser was
returning linefeeds at all in the DOM tree. I thought that the Windows
cr/lf format was causing this but now understand that this is what it
is supposed to do.

I am parsing an XML file with Python 2.6.5 minidom in Windows and it is
mostly working but minidom seems to have problems dealing with Windows
