If in doubt, just make both measures part of the repeat.  But it
seems to me one shouldn't have to do anything fancy here. The tie is in
the measure before the repeat, so it is there before the second repeat,
too, and I'd expect CDEF-|1FGAB:|2FGAA|] to tie both endings.  (Whether or
not it works on a given implementation is another question, of course. So
is the case in which you'd want it to tie one ending, not the other; in
that case, I'd just include both measures in the repeat.)
