I am getting the following output:

$ ssh -l username hostname svnserve -t
Password:
( success ( 1 2 ( ANONYMOUS EXTERNAL ) ( edit-pipeline ) ) )

I can also reach the repository via the svn command line:

svn list svn+ssh://username@hostname/svn/the_project

So I am not sure this is a ssh setup issue, I believe it's rather a
problem with the code. I will resume the code to a small sample and
paste it there later today.

Any more idea in the meantime?
