TC 2.0 *almost* works with LF-only lines.  Seems that only the preprocessor
command-recognizer fails.... (i.e. an #ifdef will get you a complaint about
a missing #endif, but a file without conditional compilation compiles
correctly).  I do agree that this is an annoying problem.  Unless I
misremember, TC 1.5 was the same as 2.0.
