I’m not sure if the \\?\ format is supported in the new rename api(as this is an option in certain publi apis and not a low level supported format), but it should certainly be used in the fallback codepath where the normal rename is tried, like hiw it is in apr.
But if the new api fails with the limit, it is quite likely that it supports the \\?\ format. Some more recent new in Windows 8+ apis just dropped the path length limit and therefore don’t support the \\?\ format… but that doesn’t apply here as this api was new in Vista.
I hope somebody looks at this earlier, but I’ll will look into this early next week.

It seems Windows specific implementation of
svn_stream__install_stream() doesn't prepend path with "\\?\" for long
names. Replacing svn_utf__win32_utf8_to_utf16() call with
svn_io__utf8_to_unicode_longpath() should fix the problem, but I
didn't try yet.
Bert, is it intentional behavior or just small typo?
