I'm a little concerned, because not all repository formats are actually
safe on VFAT. In fact, format 5 and 6 are not safe, because they don't
properly escape the disallowed characters. AFAIK only Knit1 is safe on
FAT32 with fancy characters.

So unless I miss my guess, there is a problem with our vfat transport,
because it should be failing for some versions of the repository.
