error using umlaut and other accented characters

I have a project I'm working on whose file names contain tildes and 
umlauts (ñ and ü respectively).

When updating/committing from Windows this is not a problem. When 
committing from Mac OS X I get the following error:

subversion/libsvn_subr/utf.c:466: (apr_err=22)
svn: Can't convert string from native encoding to 'UTF-8':
subversion/libsvn_subr/utf.c:464: (apr_err=22)
svn: 1038C ku?\204?\136.jpg

but I'm pretty sure my native encoding is set to utf-8.

In any case, I don't need these files but I don't seem to be able to 
just delete them.

Somehow, the files got added to the local version and now, when I try 
to commit I get the error. Likewise if I try to delete.

Is there any way to remove these files from my local version at this 
point?

Thanks in advance!

You could try to remove the file directly from the repository
via 'svn rm <URL>' and then update your wc.
