"Cannot show diff because of inconsistent newlines in the file" False Positive With Mac File

From: Alex Oss <alex_at_theedweb.com>

I've attached two small files (1k, 20 lines each) with Mac line
delimiters (0x0D). (I had to put them in a zip file so they wouldn't
get mangled by my email client.) When I ctrl-click on these two files
in Windows Explorer, then right-click on them, then select TortoiseSVN
and then Diff, I get a TortoiseMerge error message "Cannot show diff
because of inconsistent newlines in the file". However, when I look
at these files in a hex editor, the only line delimiters are Mac line
delimiters. Is this a bug?

I'm using TortoiseSVN 1.4.5, Build 10425 - 32 Bit , 2007/08/26
11:14:13 on Windows XP Professional.

Thanks!
