And here's another patch that may also fix this, simply by virtue of
writing the "\r\n" as a single string, rather than as two characters. That
way, we should never get into the situation that th '\r' allocates a new
buffer (larger than one character), and then the later '\n' writing
decides that we've filled up.

Besides, it's a cleanup. An untested one, naturally.
