No need to list the same file three times. I rewrote the log message
thusly:

 | Enable vc-merge in vc-svn.el, and avoid "svn status -uv". |

 | * tools/client-side/vc-svn.el: |
 | (vc-svn-state): Avoid running "svn status -uv" to check the status |

This won't do any good if the file is not in the user's `load-path'
(in fact, it will cause an error when bringing svn-controlled files
into Emacs! :-) ). I'll amend the instructions when I apply the
patch.

Otherwise, looks good, I'm applying now.
