Bug with bad characters in past versions when doing sparse checkout

I haven't been able to reproduce any bad behavior using svn command line, so I think it's a Tortoise thing, and am reporting it here first. Please let me know if there's a procedure I should follow, or someplace else I should go instead. Thank you.

I captured screen shots and put them here. This is the best place to see what I'm reporting:

For anyone who would prefer reading -

* At some point in history (about a year ago) we had a mac user commit files with 'foo (x|y) bar' in the filename.

* This caused problems back then for windows users, so the files were renamed to exclude the parens and vertical bar. Via svn mv

* In Tortoise now, if we do a sparse checkout (immediates) of the parent, and then try to go fully recursive (infinity) on the subdir which contains the formerly renamed files ... Then Tortoise chokes while showing the filename which has not existed for over a year.

* Using tortoise, if we do a fully recursive checkout of *just* the subdir containing the formerly renamed files, there is no problem.
