bug#2186: 23.0.90; inhibit-eol-conversion problem in a DOS file

Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the [email protected] mailing list.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

In the Emacs manual it is written that if inhibit-eol-conversion is non-nil
then ^M is displayed at every line instead of (DOS) in modeline. However
no matter to what inhibit-eol-conversion is set (t or nil) I always get
(DOS) and no ^M when visiting a DOS file.

Thanks in advance.
