This may be obvious to you, but I'm having a hard time figuring
this out.

How does this work exactly?

(dotest (teststring #\" #\linefeed #\return #\return #\linefeed
                     #\x85 #\return #\x85 #\x2028 #\")
         (list (teststring #\linefeed #\linefeed #\linefeed
                           #\linefeed #\linefeed #\linefeed)))

Basically, you're doing (open-string-input-port s) which
"returns a textual input port ... may or may not have a
transcoder ... if it does, the transcoder is implementation
dependent"

Where did you say in your code that the eols should turn to
linefeeds?  Isn't an implementation allowed to use an eol-
style of "none" in their implementation-dependent transcoder
for textual ports opened with open-string-input-port?
