Thanks. I think they do what we want them to do now.

Now I've confirmed those cases themselves. It seems they don't depend on
what is EOL character(s), except value of variable "native_nl".

If svnadmin uses charset/encoding other than 'utf-8' for output messages,
this patch is incorrect, because expected strings or regular expressions
are always Uniode, which is decoded by approprite codecs for the tool.
So I still doubt this result is by chance.

Thanks, I think this can safely be commited.

Thank you for your advice. However I worry about Python 2 regression
mentioned in another thread. If it is true, those patch can be also
affected. So I'll wait for a detailed report.

... Ah, I know it is already resolved without using os.dup/dup2
by one of subscriber of this list but not me, and waiting for
contribution :)
