The 'eol' option only works if I also turn on 'binary', but if I use 'binary' I
can only write the file using fileformat=unix. I need to write the file using
fileformat=dos but without \r\n at the very end of the file, unless it was
already there.

I know there are reasons for having newlines at the end of a file, but I need
to avoid changing code unnecessarily.
