zwgc in tty mode print's \r\n instead of just \n. I agree with Ted
that leaving in the \r's is a good thing. While every unix utility
shouldn't do this, ones that write to the screen from the background (zwgc)
or are building blocks that are likely to be used in raw mode
(com_err) should.
As to emacs terminal mode, it should be filtering out the extraneous
^M's. Your argument about that is completely bogus.
