Due to portability concerns, I worry about using '\r' here. Indeed
this would be its first use in this codebase. On the other hand,
'\015' is heavily used (at least in the tests), so that would likely
be a safer alternative.

Why the new get_terms() invocation? Is that leftover debugging gunk?

This would be the first use of awk's ORS in this codebase, which may
invite portability problems. In this codebase, the more typical way to
do this is via a combination of 'sed' and 'tr', however, even better
would be to take advantage of append_cr() from
t/test-lib-functions.sh:
