I had precisely the OPPOSITE experience -- with all mounts in bin mode.
I started with files with LF endings. I imported them -- and the new
repository files had LF/CR. I then checked them out (to a separate
location) -- and the new working dir had LF/CR.
Damn. I'm gonna have to look at this harder...
