ra_svn + ssh svn commit hangs for a while after printing "Committed revision xxx."

I've noticed that svn doesn't exit right away after it prints "Committed
revision xxx." Sometimes it can stay there for up to a minute before it
actually exits.

I found out that while the svn client is waiting, I have hot-backup.py and
svnlook still running. But those are spawned in the background from
post-commit, and post-commit exited already.

It looks like it would be related to ssh waiting for closure of stdout on
the server's end before it actually exits. Which kills the benefit of
backgrounding the post-commit operations. Maybe svnserve should forcibly
close it's stdout when it exits, or something similar?
