Hello,

I noticed the following strage output when running Postgres 12.3 (not psql) on 
Windows

     postgres=# select pg_current_logfile();
              pg_current_logfile
     ------------------------------------
      pg_log/postgresql-2020-07-08.log\r
     (1 row)

Note the "\r" at the end of the file name.

This does not happen when running Postgres on Linux.

Is this intended for some strange reason?
Or a bug or a technical limitation?

I'm guessing the difference between Unix line ending:

\n

and Windows:

\r\n
