 I searched for files with embedded <CR> characters:
 
     grep -l -R -e "$(printf '\r')" src/tests
 
 and it found these:
 
     src/tests/lib/libcurses/check_files/box_standout.chk
     src/tests/lib/libcurses/check_files/background4.chk
     src/tests/lib/libcurses/check_files/background5.chk
     src/tests/lib/libcurses/check_files/color_blue_back.chk
     src/tests/lib/libcurses/check_files/clear10.chk
     src/tests/lib/libcurses/check_files/clear5.chk
     src/tests/lib/libcurses/check_files/clear8.chk
     src/tests/lib/libcurses/check_files/clear9.chk
     src/tests/lib/libcurses/check_files/color_blank_draw.chk
     src/tests/lib/libcurses/check_files/color_default.chk
     src/tests/lib/libcurses/check_files/color_red_fore.chk
     src/tests/lib/libcurses/check_files/copywin11.chk
     src/tests/lib/libcurses/check_files/copywin12.chk
     src/tests/lib/libcurses/check_files/copywin2.chk
     src/tests/lib/libcurses/check_files/copywin4.chk
     src/tests/lib/libcurses/check_files/copywin6.chk
     src/tests/lib/libcurses/check_files/copywin7.chk
     src/tests/lib/libcurses/check_files/copywin8.chk
     src/tests/lib/libcurses/check_files/fill.chk
     src/tests/lib/libcurses/check_files/wborder.chk
     src/tests/lib/libcurses/check_files/wgetstr_refresh.chk
     src/tests/lib/librumphijack/t_tcpip.sh
     src/tests/usr.bin/sort/d_any_char_dflag_out.txt
     src/tests/usr.bin/sort/d_any_char_fflag_out.txt
     src/tests/usr.bin/sort/d_any_char_iflag_out.txt
     src/tests/usr.bin/sort/d_any_char_in.txt
 
 In every case, the use of <CR> is deliberate:
 
 * In the libcurses *.chk files, they are there to match the output
 from a program that uses curses(3).
 
 * In src/tests/lib/librumphijack/t_tcpip.sh, there's one <CR>, and it's
 used in a regular expression passed to sed.  The <CR> is not at the end
 of a line, so svn is wrong to complain about "inconsistent newlines".
 This is the only <CR> that I found that could easily be replaced by
 something else, and I changed it in CVS revision 1.13.
 
 * In the sort *.txt files, the <CR> characters are used as input or
 expected output for testing the sort(1) program.
