Psycopg doesn't do much here: it receives buffers via PQgetCopyData
[1] and forwards them to the Python file in argument. You could easily
hack the function and replace the \n into \r\n in C, but this would
still imply a copy so I'm not sure it would be more efficient than
running copy from psql to stdout and piping the result througn sed
's/$/\r/', leaving Python entirely out of the equation.
