C-Mike commited some fixes for ra_serf after r25382 - so it might be
worth updating. *shrug*

Hmm.

mstone is using threads, right? So, there could be some thread-safety
issues here...

Not directly related - but I managed to get valgrind running on an
Ubuntu box over the weekend with a ra_serf build. Current trunk of
SVN and serf showed no leaks or other corruption from within
ra_serf/Subversion code as I tried update/checkout, commit, import,
log, etc. The only problems that valgrind showed were within the
Linux dlopen() calls or within OpenSSL not freeing space - neither of
which serf or Subversion can do much about. So, I'm not sure if that
means that your earlier corruption problems as seen by valgrind are
fixed or if that means I just can't reproduce. -- justin
