I think the comment about needing translation on non-mac systems is incorrect. Binhex is (or rather was) a textual encoding for binary files used on classic MacOS.  The encoded file is more likely to be binary data than a text file and replacing b'\r' by the line ending of the current platform could well corrupt that data.
