strings test error on windows

string tests sensitive to file line endings:

exception on 1: ERROR: test failed: :((@mstr "\r\n     a\r\n     b\r\n\r\n     c\r\n     "=="a\nb\n\nc\n"))

@nolta @StefanKarpinski @JeffBezanson
how should strings behave?
A) All strings are normalized on input
B) The test is fixed to accept the same line ending on output as input (or to normalize its input, or to generate its input programatically)
C) The test is correct in failing, windows newlines are not allowed in a git checkout

I'd say just fix the test for now. Maybe we need a better story with line endings, but I'm really not sure what it is.
