RE: Bugtraq:message, old revisions, "Bug-ID" and "Show Log"

Like I said, these are only revisions that were put in before we set those properties. So we weren't really trying to use it for defect tracking at that point. So "bugtraq:number" doesn't really affect them. Is there anything I can do to fix those other than manually editing all the old log messages?

As per definition, the BUGID must be on a separate line. Since you have put your whole BUGID and the log message on the same line, TSVN must assume that the whole line is the BUGID.
The bugtraq:number property is *only* for entering the ID - it has no effect when parsing the message in the log dialog.

If you want to have your BUGID inside the log message, use the bugtraq:regex property.
