No, this isn't apples and oranges. CVS is very much involved when the
release manager obtains the sources from CVS in order to build the source
distribution. If a developer checked in a source file with the wrong line
ends, that is what the release manager will get, and thus what the source
distribution will contain.

The only thing that needs fixing is the developer who commits changes to
the code base from a different platform than they checked out from.
