Probably a line ending problem, which is common with svn and svn-tools that try to be smart and use CR-LF on Windows. I assume you installed whatever you have under ~/psptoolchain from an image (.zip or .tar.gz file), if that is the case the solution would be to get rid of that and re-install using Cygwin's svn or leave it and use a GUI for svn (as it will probably use those line endings by default, but can be configured in many ways). You can check if that is the problem by looking at the file with `od -c .svn/dir-prop-base` or something else that will show the line endings, like `vi -b ...` > I asked on a PSP coding form and they suggested to reinstall, so I tried Yep, reinstall, reboot, reboot, reboot, and see if that helps... ;-) Don't you love all those "experts" posting to user groups?
