No line oriented tool is going to avoid this problem. I suppose someone 
with much more perl skill I possess could write a grep replacement 
explicitly using binary file modes to fix this. Or, the test could just 
check the sha1sum of text.txt against a prestored value, Or the test 
could use \r\n ONLY on systems that do not use that as a line ending 
mode. Or ...
