[issue8473] doctest fails if you have inconsistent lineendings

[Terry J. Reedy]

Terry J. Reedy <tjreedy at udel.edu> added the comment:

I would call this a bug and still 2.7 eligible. The patch amounts to opening the file to be tested in universal newline mode + a corresponding test. If Python will run files with mixed line endings, doctest should test them.
