Me neither.  Unless NTEmacs has some special extensions to
set-language-environment (not that I'm aware of any).

You mean, EOL, I believe.  No, set-language-environment doesn't
specify the EOL format at all.

(Btw, if clisp indeed chokes when it gets CR-LF instead of just LF,
IMHO that's a bug in the Windows port of clisp: it should support the
format of text native to the OS it runs on.)
