Problem with "failure during string recoding"

Hello

I've just stumbled over a problem with filenames containing latin-1
caracters. Here is a simple reciept that works for me (svn-0.28.2). I
have seen no indications in the CHANGES that that problem was fixed in
the 0.29.0 release, my apologies if it the case.

tmp $ svnadmin create repo
tmp $ svn co file:///`pwd`/repo/ repo-wc
Checked out revision 0.
tmp $ cd repo-wc/
repo-wc $ ls
repo-wc $ touch test-with-accent-éàèë
repo-wc $ svn add *
A test-with-accent-éàèë
repo-wc $ svn ci -m "Added test with accent"
Adding test-with-accent-éàèë
Transmitting file data .
Committed revision 1.
repo-wc $ svn diff -r 0:1
svn: Invalid argument
svn: failure during string recoding
repo-wc $ touch test-without-accent
repo-wc $ svn add test-without-accent
A test-without-accent
repo-wc $ svn ci -m "Added test w/o accent"
Adding test-without-accent
Transmitting file data .
Committed revision 2.
repo-wc $ svn diff -r 1:2
Index: test-without-accent
===================================================================
repo-wc $

I have searched the ML for previous reports, and found some, but they
either didn't exactly match the problem, or they did not give any
solution.

Issue 1255 reports a bug with the same error message, but it seems to
be a cvs2svn bug.
