The shell will remove trailing '\n' (but not '\r') from:
      foo=$(cat bar)
So shell scripts are unlikely to be affected.

Surprisingly enough, Python is okay with this:

    with open("/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward",'r') as fp:
        print(int(fp.read()))

Nonetheless, I would rather no add those newlines. I saw enough
weird software that is sensitive where it's should not bee.

There are still a lot of scripts in PHP and Perl. Besides that I think
the many users of such files are in clouds, means Go should be checked
even before these.
