Ummmm, Stefan, I don't think Simon's talking about file size. I think he
means that TortoiseSVN (1.1.0.1526) is checking for a "newer" version,
and finding one that's actually older (1.0.8.1430). I believe this issue
has been discussed in a previous thread - something about only checking
the equality of the version strings, rather than comparing them...
