Or it reveals a philosophical bug in the old commit system, it depends
on your point of view :)

Post-commit processing requires more locks than pre-commit processing.
This is not a good idea, as the commit might suceed on the server and
fail in svn_wc_process_committed due to a lock left over from a
previous command that failed. I think that *all* the required locks
should be acquired before starting a commit, and then
svn_wc_process_committed should simply use its given locks, and not
take new ones.
