No, but:

eval(r'print(bytes("""\r\n""", "utf8"))')

should be.  (And is.)

What I believe you and Walter are missing is that the \r\n in the eval
strings are converted early if you don't make the enclosing string
raw.  So what you're eval-ing is not what you think you are eval-ing,
hence the confusion.
