Mysterious disappearance of modified overlay

From: Olivier Lefevre <lefevrol_at_yahoo.com>

I recently did an initial check-in of a code base. There was some error
about some file under one of the .svn directories that could not be
written to (the machine was thrashing; probably a timeout of sorts,
i.e., nothing serious) and when it was over I had a modified overlay on
the root directory icon but, try as I might, I could not find any actual
modification anywhere: only the root dir had a modified overlay.
Repeated commits were no-ops, confirming there were no pending changes
left. Later, after I accidentally killed the file explorer and restarted
it, I was pleased to see that the modified overlay on the root was
finally gone. What was that all about?

Regards,

-- O.L.
