You don't need the 1.6 version to work with your Windows working copies. SVN is clever enough to recognise the features provided by clients, and only allow those features through - so your 1.5.4 client can connect to your 1.6 server without any problem; as can your Windows 1.6 client.

The only time you'll have problems here is if you're using 2 clients with a single working copy - ie your Windows and Linux clients both commit and update a single, shared directory. Such an arrangement is a bad idea anyway, you'll have all kinds of problems even without counting EOL differences. If you have such a situation, checkout a new WC, so you have one for Linux and another for Windows.
