Bug#427398: svn is broken after updating ro libc6 2.5-9

[John David Anglin <dave.anglin@nrc-cnrc.gc.ca>]

Package: libc6
Version: 2.5-9
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable


After updating to libc6 2.5-9 Friday evening, the svn package is
now broken:

dave@mx3210:~/gnu/gcc-4.3/gcc$ contrib/gcc_update
Updating SVN tree
U    gcc/real.c
U    gcc/real.h

U    gcc/config/sh/sh.md
U    gcc/config/m68k/m68k-modes.def
U    gcc/config/m68k/m68k.c
Updated to revision 125296.
svn: Can't read directory '.': Partial results are valid but processing 
is incomplete
Adjusting file timestamps
dave@mx3210:~/gnu/gcc-4.3/gcc$ svn cleanup
svn: Can't read directory 'libgcc/config/ia64/.svn/tmp': Partial results 
are valid but processing is incomplete

If an update is incomplete, svn cleanup can't fix or remove lock
files.  So, a complete new checkout has to be done.
