For Mercurial, enable the eol extension and then refresh your checkout (hg
update null && hg update <rev you want>).

Some of the files in the checkout need to be CRLF for Windows' benefit, the
ones in Lib/test/decimaltestdata are as they were when pulled from their
source.  For others, a bug report would be in order. If you submit such a
bug, please make me nosy (zach.ware).
