I think that if you store g_filepath to each COM object, it will
lose its "caching" sense (other COM objects called for the same
filename need to use it).

So I think that storing g_filepath (and others) to TLS is the best
solution to this problem. Or you can leave it global, but you must
access to these variables only in critical section.

We (ALTAP) have spent three days on this problem (reproduce and
identify it), could you please fix it? It will definetely make
TSVN more stable in Windows Explorer and other hosts.
