I used a release build (I always test with a release build), built

you look at it :-/ ...

try this:
$ svn log http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/svn/tortoisesvn/trunk
--username=guest

this will trigger the crash.

It doesn't trigger a crash for me. (Subversion 1.7.7 x64, SlikSvn).
I was also not able to crash an AnkhSVN which uses +- the same build on x86.

Are you sure this is not specific to how TortoiseSVN builds Subversion or 
something like a password that was encrypted with a no longer valid key?

Ah, now I got it:
the crash only happens if you have saved the auth for the repo (tigris.org in the example above) with a different username as "guest".

For example, I have saved the auth for tigris.org there with my username "steveking" so I get commit access.

If I then pass --username=guest in a script because I only need read access, it crashes every time.

So it's not as bad as I thought before.
I guess it's only a bigger problem in case you use scripts which use different auth data.
