Understood. I'll try to dig into this a bit in the coming days. Since yesterday I have a working subversion build on Windows (I wanted to sign the svn 1.14.0-rc2 release after all). So I can probably inject some printf's or try to reproduce it within the debugger to see what calls we make to apr exactly. > I had to tweak the logic of the test I presented above to ask a > getfileinfo-based > query.
