Help needed for svnmerge.py character encoding issue

Posting this on the svn-dev list as most of the devs probably do not
monitor the svnmerge.py mailing list...

Would one of the svn devs who has a good understanding of character
encoding issues in svn review the svnmerge.py thread started here by
Romulo Ceccon:

http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.subversion.svnmerge.devel/872

Specifically, Romulo created a patch for this problem which fixes his
problem on Windows but breaks at least my linux box (review the patch
later in the thread, not the initial one). The root cause of the
problem seems to be these lines in svnmerge.py:

# We expect non-localized output from SVN
os.environ["LC_ALL"] = "C"

Is this correct and/or can this be tweaked somehow to fix the
underlying problem?

Cheers,
Raman Gupta
