[issue1395] py3k: duplicated line endings when using read(1)

Guido van Rossum report at bugs.python.org

Guido van Rossum added the comment:

IMO you shouldn't read another chunk when the last character you've seen
is \r; instead, you should set a flag so that on the next read, you'll
ignore an initial \n. The flag should be made of the tell/seek state as
well.

(The problem with reading another character is that in interactive input
mode, this might force the user to type an entire second line.)
