Description of the issue

Text manipulation behavior is inconsistent when a carriage return is concatenated with a line feed (in that order).

Steps to reproduce the problem

Length ( Char ( 10 ) & Char ( 13 ) ) = 2
Length ( Char ( 13 ) & Char ( 10 ) ) = 1
Position ( Char ( 13 ) & Char ( 10 ) ; Char ( 10 ) ; 1 ; 1 ) = 2
Length ( Middle ( Char ( 13 ) & Char ( 10 ) ; 2 ; 1 ) ) = 0

Expected result

Length ( Char ( 13 ) & Char ( 10 ) ) = 1
or at least Length ( Char ( 13 ) & Char ( 10 ) ) = Length ( Char ( 10 ) & Char ( 13 ) )

and Middle ( Char ( 13 ) & Char ( 10 ) ; 2 ; 1 ) = Char ( 10 )

Actual result

Length ( Char ( 10 ) & Char ( 13 ) ) = 2
Length ( Char ( 13 ) & Char ( 10 ) ) = 1
Position ( Char ( 13 ) & Char ( 10 ) ; Char ( 10 ) ; 1 ; 1 ) = 2
Length ( Middle ( Char ( 13 ) & Char ( 10 ) ; 2 ; 1 ) ) = 0
