AFAIK, you can have embedded CRs and LFs in a quoted field. So you'll need
to modify the code a bit to allow those if you are inside quotes.

(Not having seen this code, I have no idea, but I imagine it's a fairly
trivial change. You must already be checking for commas inside quotes and
skipping them, so adding CR and LF to the list should be "easy".)
