 An error message with an ASCII control character like '\r' in it
 can alter the message to hide its early part, which is problematic
 when a remote side gives such an error message that the local side
 will relay with a "remote: " prefix.

 Will merge to 'next'.

Please be not too hasty with advancing this topic to master. I could imagine that there is some unwanted fallout on systems where the end-of-line marker CRLF is common. Though, I haven't tested the topic myself, yet, nor do I expect regressions in *my* typical workflow.
