I'm also seeing quite a few of these today:

Couldn't find revmap for file:///work/woods/m-FreeBSD-svn/head/sys/dev/ath/ath_hal Couldn't find revmap for file:///work/woods/m-FreeBSD-svn/head/sys/dev/ath/ath_hal Couldn't find revmap for file:///work/woods/m-FreeBSD-svn/head/sys/dev/cxgb Couldn't find revmap for file:///work/woods/m-FreeBSD-svn/head/sys/contrib/pf Couldn't find revmap for file:///work/woods/m-FreeBSD-svn/head/sys r186976 = 5500451e51e73932ec27b670e136d000bf5641fe (refs/remotes/svn/stable/7)

From the wording that looks more like a problem in the SVN repository, but I don't know much about SVN so I can't say for sure....
