That depends: is the error message due to mixed eols in the file itself
or in the string? As you can see in the string, there are both \r and \n
chars there, and those are required.

If it's due to inconsistend line endings in the file itself: I've fixed
four po files which had not set the svn:eol-style property set yet
(ca_ES, eo, id and ro).

As I said above, the string requires the \r\n line ending sequence.
