[PATCH] uudecode doesn't work on files with DOS line endings

[Pavel Roskin]

Hello!

uudecode from GNU sharutils 4.6.2 cannot decode files with DOS newlines
because it expects "end" to be followed by the UNIX newline.  This
requirement should be relaxed, as it's not uncommon that files with DOS
newlines need to be decoded.

With this patch, uuencoded files with DOS newlines are decoded
correctly.
