Sorry. I was being unnecessary non-verbose.

I'm having the darnedest time parsing this.

Allow me to be more verbose about what I was thinking:

   - Make a branch in the main Subversion repository (at
     svn.collab.net) based on the 1.1.x branch. Call the branch
     /branches/ebcdic/.

   - Grant partial commit access (to the branch only) for you and your
     developers.

   - Watch as you plunk that massive diff file atop your new branch
     and commit up.

   - Poof. Now you can start managing your branch like the locking
     one.

I want only to avoid the rest of the community getting 50 commit
mails/day with tiny little iterative changes that could have been
grouped together into larger sets.
