Sorry I've been so quite lately... I've had some pretty tough hours at work
lately. I did manage to spend some time and take a look at those other
corrupted rev files. Your analysis is right on the mark for those files as
well. You can definitely see that the number of bytes overwritten is what
would have been left in a 4K buffer. I'm not sure where to proceed though.
I did see a suspicious looking bit of code in mod_dav_svn:is_our_resource()
where we attempt to coalesce some handles together but completely ignore all
errors. I haven't had much time lately to look into mod_dav_svn any further
though. At this point, it'll be sometime after the New Year before I get a
chance to really do a thorough audit of that code.

Just thought I'd keep you posted.

-John
