it seems to be a carriage return, equivalent to numtochar(13). I filed a bug report that a char exists that is treated as if it's a return, but actually renders as if it's not existent:

I can't find out what the char is, because chartonum fails with an error (Error description: Script: missing '"' after literal). When I paste that char into a LC field, it shows as a single line. If i paste the char into any other mac os x field (for example mail) it shows as a return character.
