Daniel,
I'm sorry if my original email to this group was terse.
If you elect to use the "-r" option of the svnlook command, one would hope
that you would only get records that that been touched (like an existing
directory), added, modified, or even deleted.
The behavior is that there are revisions being displayed that are not the
ones the user requested. This is the spurious data.
You said "It's a few megabytes of output, what's wrong with it?"
If you do not see a problem in getting information that does not conform to
the user's request, then that must have been the original design of the
program.

*Which* behaviour? You still have not explained why you think the
output is wrong, which was my original question.

It's a few megabytes of output, what's wrong with it?
% svnlook help tree
tree: usage: svnlook tree REPOS_PATH [PATH_IN_REPOS]
Print the tree, starting at PATH_IN_REPOS (if supplied, at the root
of the tree otherwise), optionally showing node revision ids.
Originally you said that that the "spurious data" was output when you
passed 'the "-r" option to the "svnlook tree" command'. The above
command does use that option, and does cannot logically trigger the bug
you originally reported (and tried to fix).

% svnlook help changed
changed: usage: svnlook changed REPOS_PATH
Print the paths that were changed.
