Humm, this is weird, because httrack does not handle lines
at all, but only the whole stream. I suspect some nasty
transfer error or update bug, maybe. Did you attempt to
edit the file with some editor ? This might be the cause.
I tried to mirror the page mentionned, and the page looked
ok with 3.33-rc6 AFAICS.

Well, httrack does not change anything, actually: if the
page was LF convention it is still LF convention. Only
relevant links are patched on-the flo - the rest of the
data is ok.
