Thanks for looking it over.  I can prepare an upload for tpu with the
fix to the second of those and

  b8c78e2a git svn: work around SVN 1.7 mishandling of svn:special
           changes

if you like (which is needed to avoid "svn update" failing with svn
1.7 and newer

	$ svn up
	Updating '.':
	svn: E235000: In file 'subversion/libsvn_wc/update_editor.c' \
	line 1583: assertion failed (action == svn_wc_conflict_action_edit \
	|| action == svn_wc_conflict_action_delete || action == \
	svn_wc_conflict_action_replace)
    
on changes pushed by git that flip the "is a symlink" bit).  As for
the rest of the svn 1.7 compatibility changes, would you be okay with
them after some more aging in unstable?  They would make it easier for
users to upgrade to svn 1.7 privately.

Hope that helps,
Jonathan
