Hi Mark,

Sorry for the late response.
This looks to me like a bug with the experimental shelving feature in 1.12.

Is the file main.cpp "translated" into Windows end-of-line style in
the Windows working copy (vs. Unix eol-style on the FreeBSD machine),
i.e. does it carry the svn property "svn:eol-styl=native"? Perhaps
there is a bug when shelving, in that one side is eol-translated (and
checksummed) and the other is not.
