If I were at all concerned about this, I would have raised the issue. But I am not concerned in the least.

Mac OS 9-style line endings are an endangered species on the way to functional extinction. They are seldom encountered in any file nowadays; even less so in newly-created files. The only LDraw program which ever used CR line endings was BrickDraw3D, and that project never got far enough along in development to create a model with it. (I couldn't even get it to run recently when I was trying to provide a screenshot of it for a recent comment thread.)

Bricksmith will read CR files, but only to be polite just in case. Any other software author is free to do likewise. But creating a CR-ended LDraw file would be highly inadvisable.
