CRLF escaping under CygWin

Not really a bug, but a feature I would really like to see:
an option to allow escapes ('\') before <CR><LF>s to
escape both:
Under CygWin the sources often have <CR><LF>
instead of just <LF> as line terminators. The precompiler
then generates errors on macros which escape the line
terminator. For instance:
#define DBG_OUT(x) \
fprintf(stderr, (x))
generates:
temp.c:4: parse error before `('
temp.c:4: parse error before `)'
and later in the program, where it is used:
temp.c:8: stray '\' in program
