I must have mis-typed the commands, as I now find I am not allowed to
set the *.out files to have LF as the eol-style, as it is inconsistent
with the data.

So instead I set svn:mime-type to application/xml, so subversion
treats them as binary files, which has the desired effect.

Unfortunately the tests still fail under windows.

I am going to have to debug this under windows sometime, to find out
exactly what is happening. I don't want to have to do this on my
laptop - are you intending to refresh Gobo at AXAR soon?
