Strange. Apart from the filter, there's nothing running after the items
are first shown in the dialog. And I assume that you don't enter
something in the filter edit box that fast :)

Do you have any properties set on the folder or parent folder of the one
you show the log for?
Any bugtraq:logregex, bugtraq:url or tsvn:logsummary properties set?

Does it crash on every item you show the log for or just some/one?

It also crashes if you show the log for the TSVN trunk?

now I'm confused...

Which means it only happens for x64 builds. Seems I have to do some
testing with Vista x64 - dang, that will take a while to set up...

You could build TSVN yourself and run it inside a debugger :)
