read-from-minibuffer and related functions set print-escape-newlines in
the minibuffer, but there's no clear reason why: these functions do not
call 'prin1' or 'print' directly, and setting print-escape-newlines
affects behavior only in seemingly unrelated areas, such as code
executed indirectly via activate-input-method or minibuffer-setup-hook.
If there's no need to set print-escape-newlines then it shouldn't be
set; if there is a need, the need should be documented. For now I'll add
a FIXME comment about this to Emacs master.
