Yes. The fact that it is deleting .svn means that it has successfully
deleted the other bits: .svn/text-base, .svn/tmp, etc. and the same
code is used for all the deletions.

A bit more investigation on my side reveals that the cleanup will fail
if the deletion failure occurs early (such as .svn/text-base) but will
succeed if it gets as far as .svn.

I think it's odd as well. The only thing I can suggest is that you
tweak the numbers in the retry loop. I cannot imagine that it needs
more that the 12 seconds it already gets, but perhaps it needs to
sleep more that the current 128ms maximum?
