Because it's not in my usual workflow (translation: lazy) to verify
newline correctness in incoming patches.  It probably should be.

I can add that file patch back, but, for example, one of the other file
patches doesn't apply cleanly (after fixing paths), and it's due to
chunks that only update newlines (in code that's not there in JDK8).

I'm happy to add back the one newline fix, but since the patch needed
modification anyways, I limited the original scope.  Just let me know a
preference.
