Cygwin's perl is an odd duck, in that if you open a pipe to an external
command and read lines, you'll often see an extra ^M at the end.
This means that expressions like the following in "sub update {" won't
match:
next if m%^[.]+$%;
Because the ^M doesn't match $, this line doesn't match. My workaround
for the above was
next if m%^[.]+\015?$%;
I scanned the rest of DSB.pm, but didn't see any other locations that
need such hacks..
