problematic \r in msgid

Hi,

In the POT file for bash-3.2 there is one msgid that contains two
\r characters.  Are these carriage returns necessary?  If not, it 
would be better to remove them, as they are awkward for translators 
and are causing a mild indigestion on Launchpad at the moment 
(which is Launchpad's fault, but if the ^Ms aren't needed...).

Alternatively, consider ungettextizing the message, since it seems 
to be a debugging statement or an internal error -- it's nicer to 
get such bug reports with an untranslated message.

#: lib/malloc/malloc.c:314
#, c-format
msgid ""
"\r\n"
"malloc: %s:%d: assertion botched\r\n"
