I can replicate the crash on a freshly installed Windows 7 with only
TortoiseSVN 1.7 installed and no other *sasl*.dll's. TortoiseProc
crashes with and without these registry entries. The command line
svn.exe never crashes, but works only after I put the registry entries
as described on the website (and the subversion book under SASL
installation).

Interesting thing: On another computer here, running Vista 64 bit, the
repository browser works with SASL. The command line svn.exe still only
works after putting the registry entries on Vista.

But "Vista" may be a coincidence here. It was an upgrade from 1.6 and I
had 32-bit and 64-bit parallel install before on this machine.

Both installations (on the non-working Windows 7 - 64bit install and the
working Vista 64bit install) are binary identical.

Any other ideas?

Ciao, Imi.
