This is not a problem in Subversion.

The problem is way deeper, down in the iconv implementation,
and possibly below that. It seems that the behaviour of the
locale implementation within the C library can cause an error
with GNU iconv when opening encoding/decoding code pages.

Alexander, what output does the small program below produce
on your system?

Thanks,
Stefan


#include <stdio.h>
#include <nl_types.h>
#include <langinfo.h>

int main()
{
        printf("%s\n", nl_langinfo(CODESET));
}
