actually, it depends on how the file has been opened by the application. 
if it's done in binary mode, no \n => \r\n translation takes place

but it the file is opened in text mode, wine just does what the 
application requires, which is \n => \r\n translation

(and by default, stdout and stderr are opened in text mode)


IMO, you should not expect more from Wine. Wine's goal is to run windows 
application on Unix ; it's not to run windows applications on Unix and 
requiring that they behave as they had been written for Linux semantics


anyway, we (wine) have to go back to blackboard to figure out a solution 
for disabling nicely conhost


in the meantime, you could use (without any patch to wine), some wrapper 
(bash) script like:

#!/bin/bash

# assumes wine is in $PATH

case "$1" in
    --unix-raw) shift; cat | wine $* 1> >(tee /dev/null) 2> >(tee 
/dev/null >&2);;
    --unix-lf)  shift; cat | wine $* 1> >(tee /dev/null | sed 's/\r$//' 
) 2> >(tee /dev/null | sed 's/\r$//' >&2);;
    *) wine $*;;
esac

using --unix-raw will just disable conhost (hence shall remove most of 
the ansi sequences reported)

using --unix-lf will also disable conhost and replace \r\n with \n

this shall put wine in the behavior as you expect, and still allow using 
proper redirection and piping on the shell script if needed (without 
alterning wine's behavior)

(this could be further improved by not adding a pipe for fd:s that are 
not tty, or adapted to be triggered when, say, TERM=dumb)
