Yes, but only by accident: alex changed the resource files from ANSI to
UTF16 last week, but forgot to also add the svn:mime-type property to
tell Subversion that these files are no longer 'text'.

I've now added the mime-type property in rev 12008.

Not really. Subversion can't handle UTF16 files properly. The fact that
the diff included _something_ from the UTF16 files is a simple accident.

Took me a while to figure this out myself: I've spent the last hours
trying to 'fix' TortoiseMerge to correctly parse such patchfiles. I
already had the reading of such files finally working, when I discovered
that the line numbers indicated in the patchfile were completely wrong -
due to the fact that Subversion can't handle UTF16 files. So no way to
really do this properly.
