Ok, let's take a look at this. Here's what mine looks like

-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
Proc-Type: 4,ENCRYPTED
DEK-Info: DES-EDE3-CBC,0..............B

xO.........................CENSORED!............................
...........................CENSORED!............................
            [ repeat many lines of base64 gibberish ]
...........................CENSORED!..........................BS
-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----

Does yours look the same way?

Well, depends. If I give a passphrase during "ssh-user-config" the format is exactly as you've described. If I give blank passphrases, then the file lacks "Proc-Type", "DEK-Info" and the following blank line.


Does 'od -c <id_rsa' show any '\r' chars?

No, only '\n's. " od -c < .ssh/id_rsa | grep -c '\\r' " shows 0.
