I used the following repo for testing:
$ git init
Initialized empty Git repository in /home/sverre/code/test/.git/
$ echo "first line" > test
$ git add test
$ git commit -m "initial"
[master (root-commit) d573d06] initial
 1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-)
 create mode 100644 test
$ echo -n "second line, no newline" >> test
$ git add test
$ git commit -m "second"
[master 76ad2f9] second
 1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-)
Regular output looks good:

$ git blame test ^d573d06 (Sverre Rabbelier 2009-10-20 12:30:56 -0500 1) first line 76ad2f90 (Sverre Rabbelier 2009-10-20 12:31:57 -0500 2) second line, no newline

Porcelain output looks good too:
$ git blame -p test
