Fine by me too.

Denis, if you plan to continue submitting GDB patches, I think this is
the point where I talk about coding style :-)

Our ChangeLog entries have two spaces between date and name, and two
between name and date.  The indented portion starts with a tab on every
line.  The first character should usually be capitalized.  Also, they
cover only "what" and not "why".

	* histfile.c (read_history_range): Remove '\r' character from
	history lines.

Comments start with a capital, and end with a period and two spaces.
	/* Allow reading files with Windows-like end-of-line.  */

And you don't need the spaces inside the parentheses, but do usually
need spaces around operators:

	if (line_end - 1 >= line_start && *(line_end - 1) == '\r')
	  *(line_end - 1)  = '\0';

I've checked this in with formatting fixes.
