This is a known issue.  The idea was to change ExternalBlobGenerator to
respect the _keyword_handling and _eol_fix options, but this hasn't been
implemented yet (and I've been distracted by other projects).  Much of
the work is done already; for example, the file property setters are
invoked already in CollectRevsPass so the properties are available when
they would be needed.
