Details

Talos consistently uses '\n' for line endings.  While this is fine for linux, it may break windows. (I don't know, I'm not a windows programmer.) The newlines should be done in a more universal way.
We use unix line endings throughout the project for everything.

Yes, it looks funny if you open them in notepad.exe on windows, but if you use a real editor, it's fine.  I'd say WONTFIX and standardize on unix line endings throuhgout.
I agree with ctalbert.  We require a unix style shell to run mochitests on windows, this shouldn't be any different.
Fine, I don't care
