I apologize for this regression.

Thanks to Neil's hint, I just committed a fix that reinstates CR (ASCII
0x0d) as a token delimiter, along with a test case.  However, the patch
won't appear until the next 1.8 release, which means you'd probably have
to wait a couple of months or so (unless such critical bugs affecting
many users are found...).

In the meantime, you can either apply the attached patch to 1.8.3
(running "patch -p1 < the-patch.diff" in the source directory), or
follow Neil's suggestion regarding telnet.  Let us know if it works for
you.

Thanks,
Ludovic.
