What I mean is that when someone makes a package, or more generally,
creates a Lisp file that will be made available for others on the
Internet, he/she should save that file with utf-8-unix. IOW, the
Emacs default for saving new files is not what should determine the
EOL format of such files. And that includes Lisp files that are part
of a package.

Both solutions would be fine, IMO.
