I know this problem.

You have some other process eating all of your /dev/random's output.
At least over http://, Subversion commits require a little bit of
random data. If /dev/random is being diverted, then the commit can
hang for an arbitary amount of time. This has happened to me many
times; freeing up /dev/random during the commit solves the problem
every time.
