Is this the only Ruby binding error you are seeing? Essentially none of the
tests are running for me on Windows.

I believe it is due to the first test failing in teardown() when trying to
delete the test repository (from the error message, there appears to
still be an
open file handle to the sqlite cache). From then on, all the setup()s fail
since they can't create a test repository on top of a directory with a still
open file.

I posted a patch in progress showing how I created a "session_pool" for some
client functions (add, commit, and list)
http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ReadMsg?listName=dev&msgNo=144825. I'm
not sure its a good approach, but it does get some more of the Ruby bindings
tests passing.

I'll work first on the segfault you identified above as I have time....
