Based on behaviour (and not on the code), both the svn command line
client, and TortoiseSVN both display anything printed to STDOUT by
the post-commit hook.

We use this here to run Java code through "checkstyle" before allowing
commits. Providing a quick "make check" in the project Makefile
means that people don't even complain about it too much.
