run-tests: alternative way of handling \r on Windows After f71d60da58fb all \r was stripped from output on Windows, and the places where a \r explicitly was expected it was accepted that it was missing. Ugly hack. Instead we now accept that an extra \r might appear at the end of lines on Windows. That is more to the point and less ugly. [ original upstream message ]
