I think it has something to do with the way Windows handles CR/LF.  On text
files checked in to CVS servers on Unix boxen tend to have a ^M character
when later checked back out on to Unix clients.  I think that when Windows
encounters an end of line character in a binary file, it tacks on the extra
(^M) character needed for its own processing.  I think WinCVS does binary
mode transfers across the wire.

I may be wrong.
