Comment (by dilinger):
Hm. I'm not sure I agree. We already make a point of not attempting to
guess what data is
contained in there (unlike sparc64 for example, whose openpromfs attempts
to turn properties into NULL terminated strings). I think a newline is
acceptable for something that is most likely going to be cat'd. I'm
certainly willing to be convinced otherwise, but keep in mind that I'm
looking for a policy that makes sense for all architectures, not just
OLPC.
