While doing that I noticed the error happens in a code path that only gets executed when SVN::Core isn't available. So I decided to go through the trouble of manually building and installing the subversion perl bindings, and to my delight, git-svn is working flawlessly now.

Since svn binaries *use* the svn libraries, I still don't think this was subversion's fault, but probably some bug in git-svn parsing svn output. Oh well, using SVN::Core fixed, and git-svn is a lot faster to boot.
