My guess is that this happened because you committed from Windows?

I learned the hard way that this is a bad idea. (Luckily I learned it
on other CVS projects, before I started committing to PostgreSQL).
There are settings to make it not do that, but they are not reliable.
I'd strongly suggest that you always just do a cvs diff on windows and
then use a staging machine running linux or bsd or something to apply
it through. And then you *always* run those patches through something
like "fromdos". It's a bunch of extra steps, but it's really the only
way to do it reliably.

If that's not at all what happened, then well, it's still good advice
I think, even if it doesn't apply :-)
