I've just retried my test after this change (actually with
performance-branch_at_990579, so updated just 10 minutes ago). Now I get
the assertion error, after running log or blame on that particular
file:

[[[
$ svnserve -d -r c:/research/svn/experiment/repos
Assertion failed: *ptr > buffer, file
..\..\..\subversion\libsvn_subr\svn_temp_serializer.c, line 282

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.

Is there any way I can find more information about this failure, so I
can help you diagnose the problem?

Just to be clear: the very same repos does not have this problem when
accessed by a trunk svnserve.
