After I set the svn:eol-style property on ALL files I did update my
working copy, and TortoiseSVN actually did update all files setting the
property. The error when committing appeared after I updated my working
copy.

I don't see the difference between checking out a fresh WC and updating
an existing one. This is not to say that I won't try it, but simply that
I really don't know the difference :-)

Don't tell me. I almost only use unix :-)
