One further update.

1. Open repo browser from TSVN trunk WC (with log caching disabled so
it doesn't crash immediately).
2. Right click on versioninfo.build and select edit. There is no file
association for .build files so it cannot start an editor app
automatically.
3. There is a pause while (I guess) the file is fetched.
4. A window flashes up and disappears. I have no chance to read the title bar.
5. Sometimes that is all that happens and repo browser just closes by
itself at that point with no crash message, no editor opening, no
nothing.
6. Sometimes an open file dialog opens with Select Text Editor
Application in the title bar, and at that point I get the crash
report.

The open file dialog itself will redraw if I cover and uncover it, so
that thread is still alive.
Since there is no attempt to launch the editor I hope that also lets
the virus scanner off.

If instead of Edit I use Open or Open With I get no problems.

In my servers file I set http-library = neon in [global]. I'm assuming
that file is read every time TProc starts.
