commit svn:autoprops set via <Load> file fails when file contains CRLF

Tortoise 1.8.10 talking to SVN server 1.8.11

"Could not execute PROPPATCH." error when setting (commit) svn:auto-props.

Tried to set the svn:auto-props property by loading an auto-props.txt file (copy-paste from the file showed similar behavior).

It appeared that the line endings in the file were CRLF which caused the commit of the change to fail with this cryptic error message: "Could not execute PROPPATCH."

Changing the CRLF to LF and repeating the same exercise (load file) resolved the issue. Copy-paste of the LF version of the file lost the multi-line presentation of the property.

Expected behavior would be:
1. Clear (server and/or client) error message stating that multi-line properties may not contain CRLF line endings.
2. The load button silently changes CRLF to LF when detected.
3. Copy-paste of multi line text (LF line ending) results in multi-line presentation in the TortoiseSVN "property editor".
