<warning><para>The current source tarball uses CRLF line-ending (DOS Format). This causes
problems during the compilation. Once you extract the tarball, convert the files
to UNIX style line endings using <command>dos2unix</command>. Download
<application>dos2unix</application> from
<ulink url="http://www.megaloman.com/~hany/software/hd2u/"/>.</para></warning>
