Bug? Is this time string UTF-8?
In svn_cl__info_print_time() it's assumed that
svn_time_to_human_cstring() returns a time string in UTF-8. This is not
true. Now that subversion calls setlocale the string is in the locale's
default encoding. And it gives an error when trying to convert that as
if it were UTF-8. Is fixing this just removing the conversion in
svn_time_to_human_cstring()?

No, Subversion functions are assumed to accept and return UTF-8 strings,
with the exception of the native-to-UTF8 conversions. So the fix would
be in svn_time_to_human_cstring().
