Let's kill this in the code instead of resorting to hacks like this.

One or multiple of these instances of \r is bound to be the cause:

~/svn/xymon-code/xymond > grep '\\r' *
xymond.c:       if (sourcename) cause = strtok(NULL, "\r\n");
xymond.c:                       txtstart += strspn(txtstart, " \t\r\n");
xymond.c:       tok = strtok(buf, " \t\r\n");
xymond.c:       if (tok) tok = strtok(NULL, " \t\r\n");
xymond.c:               tok = strtok(NULL, " \t\r\n");
xymond.c:               ehost = bhost + strcspn(bhost, " \t\r\n");
xymond.c:                       bid = msg->buf + strcspn(msg->buf, "
\t\r\n"); bid += strspn(bid, " \t");
xymond.c:                       eid = bid + strcspn(bid, " \t\r\n");
xymond.c:               p = strtok(p, " \t\r\n");
xymond.c:               p = strtok(p, " \t\r\n");
xymond.c:               p = msg->buf + strcspn(msg->buf, "\r\n");
xymond.c:               if ((*p == '\r') || (*p == '\n')) {
xymond_channel.c:               hostname = inbuf + strcspn(inbuf,
"/|\r\n");
xymond_channel.c:                       hostend = hostname +
strcspn(hostname, "|\r\n");
xymond_client.c:        p = s + strcspn(s, "\r\n");
xymond_locator.c:       const char *delims = "|\r\n\t ";


JC, Henrik -- any ideas?
