No, they cannot corrupt the repository. The first one might simply
cause commits to be "bounced out" with out-of-date errors more than they
need to be, in high-concurrency situations. The second fixes a problem
where the repository might "wedge" and need to be un-wedged with the
usual 'svnadmin recover'.
