perl textmode newline problem

I can't get perl to write files in text mode with correct line feeds.
My perl program:
#!/usr/bin/perl
open(F, "> test.txt") or die "can't open file";
print F "Foo\n";
print F "Bar\n";
close(F);
Outputs newlines as 0x0A.
But my C program:
#include <cstdio>
int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
FILE *fp = fopen("test3.txt", "w");
fprintf(fp, "Foo\n");
fprintf(fp, "Bar\n");
fclose(fp);
return 0;
}
Writes newlines as 0x0D 0x0A. Same output dir.
All my mounts is in textmode. CYGWIN is empty. I'm using perl 5.8.0-5
and cygwin 1.5.3-1.
I recently upgraded cygwin and got this behavoiur. Before it was
correctly outputting text with 0x0D 0x0A.
What can be the problem? A bug in perl? By design change in cygwin perl?
