Last night I created a brand new repo and one of the first things I did
was to set some properties on the trunk directory and try to add files all
in the same commit. That is when I got my hang when trying to add files
and by the time I got things settled down it had corrupted a file.

I could try it again and see if I can reproduce it in a few hours when I
get home......
