Pipe symbol causing checksum error

[Charles Humble]

I recently modified a constants file for my Java app to change the
separator used for the title bar in the browser, thus:

    /**
     * Separator for title bar
     */
    public static final String TITLE_BAR_SEPARATOR = " | ";

When I try and chec the file into our SVN repository I get a checksum
message.  If I change the constant to anything else it works fine.

I'm running svn --version 1.6.17 on an OS X Lion server if it helps.

Anyone aware of this?  Any workaround suggestion?
