svn diff and native eol style

svn diff does not respect the EOL style, at least not when it is set to
native. Before the diff is calculated or an external diff is called,
the two files to be diffed are converted to NL EOL style. This means
that on e.g. Win32, the diff chunks contain NL EOLs for files with
native EOL style, which of course breaks patch among other things.

I think the way to fix the problem is to convert the two files to the
correct EOL style before diffing. I'm planning to write an issue about
this, but I wanted to see if anyone had any comments first.
