bugreport: filename containing a ? imports ok, but checkout fails

Description:

Filenames with a ? character import ok, but a checkout of the tree fails
with an XML parse error: non welformed xml ..... in a internal svn file.
(Sorry lost the exact filename). The isssue is reproduceable.

Steps:

- I did an import of an existing source tree. One of the files contained
a '?' mark in it the filename. Probably the result of an incorrect
character set translation. Although unpractical, a '?' is a valid
character in a filename. The import completed ok.

- A checkout of the just imported tree proceded fine upto the '?' file.
Then the checkout failed with the XML parse error msg.

Regards,

Harco

Yes over https. I've included a tar.gz file with the 'offending' 
filenames. These files give all sorts of trouble
with other utitlites as well, but it shouldn't break the svn repository.

Thanks for your response,

Harco
