"Can't recode string" again...

Hi!

I already found a few references to this error but no discussion seemed to
give a definitive solution to this problem.

Configuration:
Client: svn 1.2.3, LANG=de_DE@euro (ISO 8859-15), Filenames with umlauts
Server: svn 1.1.1, bdb 4.2 backend, using svnserve, "C" locale

Problem: checkin was successful. Subsequent commits in a directory with
umlauts now cause the error message "svn: Can't recode string".

strace shows that this error message is generated by the *server* process:

,----[ ]
| write(3, "( 2 ( edit-pipeline )
| 41:svn://192.168.42.1/home/misc/Spr%C3%BCche ) ", 69) = 69
| read(3, "( failure ( ( 22 19:Can\'t recode string
| 28:subversion/libsvn_subr/utf.c 363 ) ) ) ", 4096) = 82
`----

This is what I do not understand. I always thought subversion would
normalize all strings to UTF-8 before juggling with them, so I'm wondering
why the server process complains, it should not have to recode anything?
The URL it gets looks like url-encoded UTF-8 to me...

Greetings,

  Gunter
