The existing translation key doesn't have a newline on it. Most of
the uses it is inappropriate to just add a new line to, since most of
them are going into svn_error_t. The alternative to what he's doing
is to add a second translation key that has a newline, which creates
extra busy work for translators.

Another alternative would be to do another svn_cmdline_print of just
"\n". Perhaps that's less messy, but I don't have particularly strong
opinions on this.
