That's odd.  I don't think this code has changed, and I don't see any way
that it would create that behavior:

    db_get openafs-client/thiscell
    echo $RET >/etc/openafs/ThisCell

    db_get openafs-fileserver/thiscell
    echo $RET >/etc/openafs/server/ThisCell

echo with no special arguments should always add the newline.
