I'm starting to wonder what the problem really is that makes it so
Python-specific. If I understood correctly, it's about a couple of files which
must be stored using non-Unix line endings, right? (in the PC and PCbuild
directories?)

These files are hardly modified often and by many people (and even more rarely
by non-Windows people), so why not just put a verification hook on the server
and let the offending committer repair his mistake manually, if it ever happens?
(we can even provide a script to help repairing the EOL mistake, like
Tools/reindent.py does for indentation mistakes)
