It works for me on Linux. The error message is probably wrong. Isn't it possible to convert each string encoded in a special encoding into UTF-8? Maybe try it in another locale if possible (LANG=C on POSIX, i.e. use a different default encoding such as latin1)?
I'm using svn from Cygwin on a Vista machine. Anybody else seeing this? What's going on?
I know that some files created on Linux could not be extracted in Windows (such as aux.c, ...). But the error message is different ... Don't know what's going on. Jens
