Yes. In the perl source is defined if a system that defines O_TEXT with a different value as O_BINARY kind of DOSISH, then the :crlf PerlIO layer will be used. That is to override the default :stdio layer (as it is on unix). If I change it to be Cygwin != DOSISH, then the standard Unix layer :stdio will be used if no environmet setting overrides it and every other layer like e.g. :perlio, :crlf or :utf8 may be pulled in by request. I think this is what we want.
