Yes, that is strange.
Maybe the code recently changed on trunk? Before trying the mingw stuff on
trunk, I already tried it on the 1.6.x branch. And there I didn't have this
problem... Most of the python test did run without error.

No.
There is an svn_path_uri_decode call inside svn_ra_local__split_URL that
replaces the '%3A' with ':'. I single stepped through the code and it fails
because of the case mismatch.
Unfortunately with the attached patch the python tests still don't run properly.
They don't hit the assertion anymore but now fail with the same error checking
their output.
Not exactly sure what this means..
Couldn't find node 'C:' in expected output tree
* Node name: C:
Path: __SVN_ROOT_NODE\C:
Contents: N/A (node is a directory)
Properties: {}
Attributes: {}
Children: 1
ACTUAL OUTPUT TREE:
<python stack trace follows>
But there is a little improvement... :)
