This question should probably be asked on users_at_subversion.tigris.org.

When you post there, you might want to clarify whether you're talking
about errors from repository hook scripts, or something else. I
couldn't quite grasp what your question was asking: Subversion generates
errors, but it doesn't "accept" them, so I wasn't sure what you meant or
what you're trying to do.

Good luck,
