I would like to report an issue with not well formed configuration files.

Subversion segfaults when a leading space character is used in a
configuration file.

As far as I can tell this is true for all versions of the Subversion library
on MS Windows.



Example:

[global]

*space character*http-proxy-host = defaultproxy.whatever.com

This is already fixed in Subversion 1.9 which prints an error message
instead of segfaulting. Please upgrade.
