Question can be not so simple as it look from the first sign.
As example not only different OS standards apply but also encoding question can be raised - please fix my comment if I am wrong but (Unicode Standard Annex #14 docs for Unicode 5.1.0) unicode realization try to fix OS new line problem making no differences between CR, LF && CR+LF chars but when see LF+CR (no CR in first place) - think that's 2 newline characters but ASCII interpreter it as one (historically as i understand).
p.s: please give us you input data example + perl code && environment localization information - so we can check at least you situation does not apply to something exotic like: "Tibetan Line Breaking" unicode new line finding algorithm.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
