Hi Randy,
it seems that I'm the culprit. I've set the executable flag to all
files in Master/bin but it seems that svn has problems with the
executable flag for symlinks. However, Martin Schröder reverted
bin/i386-linux to rev 6968 and Karl Berry fixed the other
directories.
Does it work now?
Regards,
Reinhard

Microsoft isn't the answer. Microsoft is the question, and the answer is NO.
