[ros-dev] Differences in Windows and Linux builds

[Colin Finck]

This bug is fixed now in r26764.

The line 'CsdString.Length -= sizeof(UNICODE_NULL);' was used to remove the
new line at the end of the message.
But on Windows, the compiled message table had a "\r\n" as the newline
character and on Linux it was just "\n". So the "Service Pack" string was
chopped on Linux builds.

This is mainly a problem in wmc, which should compile the same line ending
into the message table on different platforms.
But the changes of r26764 also work around this problem in the kernel.

Regards,

Colin
