Bigger --deltas dump with 1.7.5 than with 1.6.17

After comparing two dumps of the same repository, one obtained
with Subversion 1.6.17 and one obtained with 1.7.5, both with
--incremental --deltas (both from revision 0, but not with the
same upper revision), I've noticed two changes:

1. The properties are reordered (that was expected after the change
   in libapr).

2. Text content is sometimes larger with 1.7.5. For instance:

 Text-delta: true
 Text-delta-base-md5: 6c17738e070af8b69a4814ddc7484f69

and so on. Is there any reason? Has a bug been introduced?
While I could except the opposite after an improvement of the
compression algorithm, a bigger dump is rather surprising.
