CRLF translations by CPP?

This issue was discussed between Paul Eggert, Richard Stallman and the gcc2
list in May 1997. The outcome of the discussion was:

1) The issue of CR LF and the issue of whitespace after backslash should
   be treated separately.
2) CR LF should be treated like LF (newline) on all platforms.
3) Inside macro definitions, whitespace between a backslash and a newline
   character deserves a warning, but this whitespace should not be ignored
   (because it is part of the source file).

Here is a patch which implements this. I think we can put this in.

        * cccp.c (crlf_pcp): New function.
          (main, finclude): Call it.
        * cccp.c (handle_directive): Emit warning for trailing whitespace
          after backslash.
