ZyXEL attaching "0d 0a" to received faxes? Or am I stupid??

Hi,

Wolfgang Jung notified me of a weirdness (that doesn't cause problems but
still bothers me): all fax files that were received with my ZyXELs end in
something like

a470    51 60 00 00 10 01 00 10  01 00 10 01 0d 0a         Q`............

- the first part (10 01) is OK, those are the 6 end-of-line characters.
But after them, immediately before the DLE ETX, the ZyXEL seems to send a
cr+lf pair.

I checked my sources, and (unless I am as stupid as tired today) I don't
think that it's a bug in mgetty that appends those bytes.

So, to all of you that have some received fax files still lying around:
could you just check the last few bytes and send me a note with which
modem you get what? Thanks.

Brent: do you think it's possible that the ZyXEL treats "DLE ETX" similar
to "OK" and thus prepends a CR+LF pair?
