* check the property values on that file: they should not have any < or
> in them (Subversion tries to escape those sequences, but sometimes
fails to do so properly because in some rare cases, it's simply not
possible)
* make sure no virus scanner/firewall is interferring (disable them and
try the commit again, but make sure they're *really* disabled)
