Re: svnadmin: Path '....' is not in UTF-8 - svnadmin load fails

1.6 checks that paths are in UTF-8 at the time they enter the
repository. This was always required but not always enforced.

Solution is to recode the pathnames (those that are neither in ASCII nor
in UTF-8). If none of the third-party dump manipulation tools can do
that, then you could patch svnsync or one of those tools to do the
recoding. (just inject a filename-recoding editor at the right place)

It doesn't show "two UTF-8 characters", since the filename contains two
bytes which do not form a valid UTF-8 sequence.
