[Bug-tar] --exclude-from=FILE doesn't work with CRLF line terminators

version: tar (GNU tar) 1.13.25
OS: Cygwin/WindowsXP
 
If the file where the exclude patterns are stored has CRLF line terminators (i.e. created in DOS/Windows) only the last pattern in the file is effective. Changing the file to unix-style LF line terminations (e.g. with dos2unix) will cause the option to work properly.
