The initial code to convert keywords to a hash internally was committed
in December of 2005, see the original incident:

        http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=890

but the design discussion of how to handle properties substituted as
keywords never got restarted. Be sure and review the other open issues
regarding keywords that really should be dealt with as well:

        http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=2219
        http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=2514

You should also search the dev list archive here:

        http://svn.haxx.se/dev/

for the various flare-ups in handling keywords...
