The -kb flag stands for 'keep [it] binary' :) I added the -kb flag to the
three .dsp's in question and it should be fixed now: they end up on my UNIX
boxen as DOS files, in any case. Please test, though!

(You add -kb flags to existing files using 'cvs admin -kb <files>'. There's
probably some dropdown menu under Windows to do it from ;)

Assigned to Barry not because he can fix it, but because I don't understand
what CVS does here.  Is there some flag I have to set on these things to
make sure they retain the Windows line-ends when somebody else checks them
out?

I see that the three files mentioned here don't have a "-kb" thingie in my
local CVS/Entries file, while the other .dsp files do.  That's almost
certainly because all 3 were created recently, and I just did "cvs add ...
cvs commit" on them.  They've definitely got Windows line-ends on my box. 
I figure the "b" in "kb" stands for "Bass player", so I'm asking you for a
riff.
