Warning on very long file names

Hi,

I'm currently in little bit nasty situation.

I accidentally committed a file with a filename length at 251 byte.
(Japanese Kanji Characters using UTF-8, 'LC_ALL="ja_JP.UTF-8"')

I could commit, but I can't update, because filename length exceeds
255-9 bytes, so svn could not write file with ".svn-base' appended.

I believe svn should warn if user try to commit a file with more than
NAME_MAX-9 bytes of name.

And, I have a question:
Is it possible to specify a file in repository other than path name?

Why I'm asking this is, I like to specify pathname directly.

I'm trying like follows (and several variant of these) but something
going on in UTF-8 encoding and failing...

-- >8 -- cut here -- >8 --
#!/bin/sh
LC_ALL="ja_JP.UTF-8"; export LC_ALL
svn rm `svn ls |fgrep PATTERN`
-- >8 -- cut here -- >8 --

# PATTERN matches only to one line of output
