It might be considered a bug, but it's not clear to me how to treat this.
The problem is that this operation treats certain errors as non-fatal and
continues. So if you say
svn lock a b
and a was already locked, it continues with b. If the latter lock
operation succeeds, should it return success or failer? Maybe someone on
dev@ has an opinion.
