Follow-up Comment #5, bug #55335 (project groff):
Cygwin opted for POSIX/Linux/etc. compatibility a few years ago in 2017, and
dropped all text mode open patches to utilities including coreutils, gawk,
grep, sed, etc. causing some consternation, and much rejoicing amongst those
who use it and newlib for embedded and Unix development, because Windows is
what the org gives them.
We advise those who wish Windows compatibility including CR-LF to use utility
commands, unix2dos, Msys2 or Mingw64, both somewhat based on Cygwin and its
Windows cross build tools and libraries, native Windows apps.
