1.7.5: Extra \r when redirecting output


I'm seeing the following behavior in 1.7.5 and also 1.5.25, but not in
1.3.12 (yes, we still use that version).
 
On a text mode mount, we have the file foo which has \r\n line endings.
If I do
    grep -i line foo|od -cd
then the output shows proper \r\n line endings.
 
However, if I do
    grep -i line foo >foo.out
    od -cd foo.out
then the line endings are \r\r\n.
 
See attached files.
This works fine on binary mounts.  
 
Thanks,
Dave
