It's possible that the eol-style has nothing to do with this, because before I added the style, my script was still failing and complaining about the EOF as well as EOL errors...
Running your od command yields the following on the last 3 lines:
0000620 s t t i m e . . . . " \r \n \r \n
0000640 \r \n e x i t 0
0000650
so it is missing \n ...
I opened the file in notepad and added a couple blank lines under my exit 0
and it worked!! How weird is that?
Thanks for your help! It's been much appreciated.

In Notepad, can you move your cursor below the last line of text in the
file? If not, there won't be a newline after the final line. Under
Linux, try "od -c test2.sh | more" and verify that there is a "\n" at
the very end of the listing. If not, you'll need to add one in Notepad,
Komodo, or your favorite Linux editor.
I have no idea why you would see this problem only with "svn:eol-style"
defined (if in fact this is the problem).
