Could you backport this to staging/ so future changes to staging don't
merge conflict when they are published?

I believe nowadays this managed by infra here:

https://github.com/apache/infrastructure-puppet/blob/deployment/modules/svnqavm_pvm_asf/manifests/init.pp

It currently uses backport.pl. I think it's up to you whether to have
1.10.x use backport.pl (as 1.9.x does; just add 1.10.x to the for loop
there) or backport.py (the newer / shinier / non-deprecated
equivalent; tools/dist/README.backport has details).

Someone needs to run the 'svn checkout' manually. I've just done that.
The exact checkout command is documented in machines/svn-qavm2/notes.txt
in the private repository (need to use a trunk client and the svn-master.a.o
hostname).

I added 1.10.x to the buildbot config a while ago. Now would be a good
time to add 1.11.x to it, though. :-)
