That mime-type is clearly wrong if it is a binary file

http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.7/svn.advanced.props.file-portability.html#svn.advanced.props.special.mime-type

If you are using psvn it forces a mime type of text which is wrong in this case.
 ${SVN} -q propset svn:mime-type text/plain ${_file}

You'll have to manually make sure this file has the right properties
and commit with svn not psvn.
