Use validate-files.py in the trunk tools/hook-scripts with a conf file like so:

[repositories]
* = newlines

# Running any rule against a file with a newline in it will fail
because we break the svnlook output by newlines.
# So the filename will appear as non-existent. Hook will fail with an
error about the file not existing in the transaction and the commit
will fail.
# It's not pretty but it stops the problem.
[rule:newlines]
pattern = *
command = 'exit 0'
