I cannot say anything substantial in this direction but only remark that
subversion on Mac got this wrong at some point leaving me with files that
looked like having the same name (with umlaut characters) but where the
filenames were encoded differently and thus were different files to the file
system. On subsequent invocations subversion would get completely confused
claiming that it would now refuse to overwrite files that are not under
revision control.
