Thought about that for a second, but when I mixed forward and backward
slashes in the path to the script and ran from the command line, it
executed properly.

It may take me a couple days to get a build environment set up at home
(Subversion isn't my primary responsibility at work, so I need to
approach this as more of a personal project). If I can contribute
something useful back to Subversion, it'd be a great feeling.

Not a problem. I just signed myself up so I don't miss anything. I'll
email you off-list when I get a build environment set up and we'll
give it a shot.
