You are already using a SVN class, maybe that helps. And the locale
switching could be done with a temporary object of a LocaleSwitcher
class that switches to the subversion locale in the constructor and
switch back in the destructor, similar to the CWaitCursor class, so we
never miss a switch back.

This was meant to be a desperate joke ... we can not force people to
write their own source code/texts in UTF8! It is the mix of user's text
files with the tortoise/subversion generated output (like blame and
merge) that make things so complex.
