Bingo.  "Somewhere" was the operative word.  The Collabnet config file was 
being read from my roaming profile instead of from my windows home dir.  The 
roaming copy of config had "* = svn:eol-style=LF", and that auto-prop seems to 
have been causing the breakage.  ("global-ignores = *.* *" is a great way to 
narrow down what config file is being read.)

And the reason why 'svn add' was failing on different files is because 'svn 
add' walks the directory tree in a different order each time.

Thanks for the help!  Now I must find a wall to quietly beat my head against.
