Which client is this? Truthfully, if the server is following the RFCs
(and using "\r\n"), any clients that don't work with it need to be
sent into the swirling mass of nothingness: /dev/null. However, it may
be appropriate to inform the author of said client about just how
stupid it is for a client to break when a server uses the proper
standards...:)~

In other words, it should be the responsibility of the coder of the
cleint to properly support the RFCs, not the servers.
