I don't understand your question completly or rather I don't see
problem here. But I have some comments to patch:

Variables keywords, eol and eol_style used only when !special, so for
me better to move these variables to else body. I didn't see
recommendation in hacking about this, but I prefer to minimize scope
of variables in such case: it is improves readability and performance
(a bit of course).

I consider svn_wc_translated_file2() should use
svn_wc_translated_stream() for implemention to eliminate duplicated
and uncovered by test suite source code. Yes, I see that
svn_wc_translated_file2() is no-op in some cases, so we loose *some*
performance, but I consider it's acceptable tradeoff.
