Note that at this point, it's no more a language issue. The problem
would be exactly the same in C or whatever. When you say Python does the
right thing, you mean the Python implementation you tried, right? AFAIK
there is no such thing as a Python standard. And if you think of
particular implementations, Gnat does the same thing: it accepts pretty
much any possible line terminator.
