Extra \n's in API responses

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I'm trying to expand the URL http://bit.ly/hrwmv4 using bit.ly /expand API call.

$ curl 
'http://api.bitly.com/v3/expand?shortUrl=http%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2Fhrwmv4&login=…&
apiKey=…&format=json'
{ "status_code": 200, "status_txt": "OK", "data": { "expand": [ { "short_url": 
"http:\/\/bit.ly\/hrwmv4", "long_url": 
"http:\/\/www.zazzle.com\/pink_cream_background_wedding_invites_invitation-16113

} ] } }

Note the '\n' characters at random positions in the "long_url" field. However, 
when I expand this url via HTTP, the "Location:" header is a single contiguous 
string without any newline characters:
$ curl -I http://bit.ly/hrwmv4
