This is just a random guess; there's not a lot of information to go on
here.

The fact that you see this ".in" at the beginning of the line
(overwriting the beginning of "config.status") implies that there was a
stray \r in a value somewhere, and that this is a line-ending issue. 
This might happen if you were using DOS-delimited files on a binary-mode
mount.  If you used a native windows SVN client then that would probably
be why.  Either use Cygwin's SVN or set your mount modes to properly
reflect the line endings of the files.
