It's OK for the CodeWarrior compilers and editor, which handles all 3 line
ending styles.

For other Macintosh editors, LF line endings are no good. But conversion to
CR instead of LF is automatic when downloading the file via FTP or HTTP or
decoding an archive as long as the file is known to be text (MIME types set
up properly, file type set up as text in Zip, etc.)

So I see no problem.
