?????

I had precisely the OPPOSITE experience -- with all mounts in bin mode. 
  I started with files with LF endings.  I imported them -- and the new 
repository files had LF/CR.  I then checked them out (to a separate 
location) -- and the new working dir had LF/CR.

Damn.  I'm gonna have to look at this harder...
