@fred, yes, which is on purpose, because a line without a trailing \n is no real line. This is the same behavior as with my other sed/awk (tr/awk) answer.

Does this C program handle multibyte characters? Does á(U+E1 "LATIN SMALL LETTER A WITH ACUTE") and a + ` ́ `(U+61 "LATIN SMALL LETTER A" + U+301 "COMBINING ACUTE ACCENT") get counted in an equivalent manner?
