    That kind of heuristic is bound to trip some people, I think.  It's
    difficult to set a threshold that will suit everyone.  It's also
    difficult for users to set such a threshold, if we give them an
    option.

A threshold may be the wrong way to decide, but it could be that a
mixture CRLFs with some extra CRs should be accepted as DOS-style.
