Not well-formed output for "svn log --xml" command
If I run the following command on a command window (WinXP)
svn log -v --xml -r 3730 svn://mono.myrealbox.com/source/trunk
it happens that the output contains an unexpected character U+001a within
text content of element 'msg' (just before the closing tag </msg>).
I have found this issue trying to parse the output in order to extract some
statistics from the repository. After redirecting the output to a file with
svn log -v --xml -r 3730 svn://mono.myrealbox.com/source/trunk >
mono_History.xml
the attempt to validate it with a free tool from
http://www.elcel.com/products/xmlvalid.html revealed the exact position of
the non-valid character.
Hope this helps. For further info, please contact me.

See issue #2147. A workaround is to edit the log message that contains the
control character.

That's caracter code 26, control-Z, which is commonly used as an EOF marker
in text files under MS-DOS and possibly MS-Windows. Of course, it's not at
the end of your file, so it's still an error.
