Subject: Line endings now altered when saving kernel patches via gmail

I noticed sometime in the last month that one of the normal patch
processes (open up gmail, find the email that contains the patch, then
"show original" then "save as ...") doesn't work anymore.  Gmail
appears to now corrupt patches by inserting DOS line endings (at
least) even when "show original" - any idea how to turn this off.
The alternative is going to be switching to a mailer application
(instead of using Firefox to access gmail) which can be a pain for
different reasons.
