I don't see much harm in turning on drop_cr by default. The whole area
is so evil that anyone who causes problems by relying on particular
behaviour deserves the worst possible consequences. Another evil idea
I had as a possible alternative way of dealing with the Cyrus mismatch
would be to convert bare CRs into CRLFSPC, so that the additional line
break doesn't split the header.
