merge-recursive needs to be able to deal with \r at EOL, too, so if at
all possible I would prefer to see the test fixed to pass on Cygwin
some other way.
Maybe use -U/--binary option to grep? Indeed, if you look at the top of
that test file, you will see:
test_have_prereq SED_STRIPS_CR && SED_OPTIONS=-b
test_have_prereq MINGW && export GREP_OPTIONS=-U
which may explain why it works for me on MinGW, but not why it works on
cygwin 1.5.

Thanks, hadn't noticed that, it leads to a much better patch.
