The line-ending coding standards tests can be a problem in some cases, where
Windows developers add new files with their native format and forget to set
the svn:eol-style=native property on the files, so those standards fail on
Unix and Unix-like platforms.
Hopefully this problem won't turn up so often as I've added
t/distro/file_metadata.t to the default list of tests for 'make test'
. This does depend on people using 'make test' before committing....
(and as much as I feel I'm helping out with fixing whitespace issues,
I still wish I could fix other broken windows)
