It looks like the problem is the file with a name like:

  imfront/python/schnellstart/Verkn?pfung mit imfront.bat.lnk

Monotone was supposed to convert this filename to UTF-8 back when it
first added it, but didn't; since then we've tightened up the checks
for such things.  If you know what charset it's in (you seem to be in
the C locale, so monotone doesn't), we can almost certainly put a
patch in the migration code to make this work...

(There may be other files with similar problems, that it errored out
before seeing.)
