The answer is in the release notes.

"The Windows 98/Me and Windows NT 4.0 operating systems are no longer
supported in TortoiseSVN 1.2. That's not because we want to be
unfriendly, but because there are just too many incompatibilities in
these older OS versions which we have to work around, and as none of the
developers use these systems it is impossible to test and debug
properly. If you want to use TortoiseSVN with these systems, you should
use the 1.1.x line which is still available from our download page." -

ok, that's understandable (_how_ could I miss it from the release
notes?)
maybe the faq needs to be updated also then
I know a lot of work is currently being put into it and don't want to
stress anything

the entry where the ie6setup is, could mention that it is only relevant
for 1.1.x versions
and that >=1.2.0 versions are not supported on these systems.

I wonder how locking will work out then
will a user using TSVN 1.1.7 be able to edit a file that should normally
be read only?
or will the server (svnserve and/or apache) blok the client from
checking out files wich
have the svn:needs-locking property?

I'll find that out soon enough.

thanks for the quick replies everybody.
