Re: testsuite under wine

[Rob Savoye]

  For a totally off-topic response, as the primary author of DejaGnu, 
and currently retired maintainer (thanks Jacob!), it has been so fun to 
see such great community support from multiple people and the Wine 
project. For a 31 year old project, it's very encouraging. I am loving 
the deep technical discussion.

  I'll note Wine did not exist when I wrote DejaGnu, course neither did 
mingw. In the early years we just would use telnet on a windows machine 
for cross testing, and then later just Cygwin. The problem with CR/LF 
has been around since the beginning. They are needed to know the end of 
a string, but obviously vary a lot depending on the target.
