According to Andrew Louie on 12/1/2006 3:17 PM:
You have DOS line endings in these files. Use 'd2u' to remove them.

Thanks! I would have never known that,

now, can i run d2u on every file in my installation?

No, only run it on text files (it corrupts binary files, such as *.exe).
d2u may also corrupt "text" files that need to have CR in them. This includes bash scripts that need to parse or output CR.
