I did file http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=4417. I did also contact the SQLite developers about this issue, and in http://www.mail-archive.com/sqlite-users@sqlite.org/msg78853.html, Richard Hipp saids: | SQLite version 3.8.0 allows for longer windows pathnames up to | 3*MAX_PATH bytes, which is 3x more space that was allowed before. This is | still not 32K but might be sufficient for your needs. The limit can be | extended at compile-time. This could help us to solve the problem.
