Sorry, the interesting output in this case would have gone into a
file whose name begins with the value of $TMPPREFIX.  You won't see
anything on your terminal.  What I want to know is whether the file
contains anything.

That most likely means it's a problem with "read" (or something that uses
the variables assigned by "read").

Do you experience any problems with, for example,

    print "trailing spaces    " | read -A array

??  I just don't see any reason why $'\r' would be magical.
