Thanks for taking care of this.  Your fix solves the problem for me
though I'm not sure whether it fixes the issue raised by Peter:

In particular, when I visit a file, (1) save it with a different line
ending, (2) change the line ending outside this instance of Emacs, and
(3) revert the buffer, its line ending is the one saved in (1) and not
the one from (2).  But IIUC Emacs 22 didn't handle this either.
