svndumpfilter can't handle a revision with a non-printable character

I ran into this issue when trying to dump a tree out of our SVN repo.
Whenever svndumpfilter got to a particular revision, it would die with
an error of "svn: Can't write to stream: Bad address"

The dump of revision in question is attached.

I believe that the problem has to do with some non-printable characters
that are in this revision (at least that's what makes this revision
unique).

Anyone else familiar with this error?

Thanks!
dave
