Please fix this outside of GnuPG.  We won't change things in GnuPG
because it was never specified what the character set is and whether the
linen ending is CR, or CR+LF.  Some software used fopen("foo","r") and
other software uses fopen("foo", "rb") or "w" and "wb" at the other
site.  Your change fixes this for you but introduces a regression for
others.


Salam-Shalom,

   Werner
