Not sure. The only mentioning of this specific message was about Linux
and multi-threading, in svnserve. Apparently, due to some race
condition/pthread locking semantics problems, something could get
corrupted. It could be a compiler bug as well, of course.

I would try to get some "official" binaries; 1.2.x works just fine with
svn.python.org as well.
