Problem with the dos2unix command

- Subject: Problem with the dos2unix command
Hello list,
I'm trying to convert a \r\n line-ending file to unix style, but
this file has some lines with their last character being \r (i.e.: the
sequence of binary bytes is ...\r\r\n...)
Using dos2unix to convert it strips both \r, resulting in a byte
sequence ...\n...
This seems to me a bug. I need the trailing \r in the file as a normal
character, not being part of the line ending.
Many thanks for support.
