I don't think textmode implies anything. If you set DOS mode then
textmode will produce CRLF, if you set UNIX mode then textmode will give
you LF.

Are you saying the following is true?

echo -e "line 1\nline2\n" > test.txt # test.txt has CRLF
svn add test.txt
svn ps svn:eol-type=native test.txt
svn ci -m"test" test.txt
rm test.txt
svn up test.txt # now test.txt has LF

In that case I suppose it would be an issue with APR deciding that
APR_EOL_STR will be "\n" instead of "\r\n".
