I find it very strange as I think that if someone
needs unix2dos utility he usually also needs dos2unix
utility, especially taking into account that unix2dos
by default overwrites its input file.

There's also app-text/tofrodos. It installs two binaries, "todos" and
"fromdos".  It solved some problems the other tools had (unix2dos and
dos2unix), but it's been long ago and I don't remember which problems
they were...

Alternatively:

cd /usr/local/bin; echo dos2unix unix2dos | xargs -n1 ln -s /bin/busybox

--Kerin
