If you set svn:eol-style to CRLF, you ask Subversion to output files
in that EOL style. From what you describe above, I'm not sure you did
that.
I can see in the code there is an error wrt the actual EOL style sent
out though; as lundblad, I can have a look at this, since I'm
committing code next week which makes it WAY easier to solve the bug.
HTH,
