Oops, sorry about that. Initializing only had_nl is sufficient to fix
the issue in this case (had_cr is initialized further down in the
fuction). I will clean it up tonight (fix log message, and perform
another commit to change to one-variable-per-line), but if someone
else wants to do this: feel free.

I realize that these functions (find_identical_*) are somewhat hard to
'parse' right now, because they are so big and unwieldy. I intended to
improve them, reshuffle the code a bit, maybe split it up here and
there, but couldn't do this yet because of lack of time. And having
arrived this close to the release, I was hesitant to refactor things
because I didn't want to introduce any additional risk. Though, now
that these bugs are turning up, I kinda regret that ...
