Looking at your tests.log, it seems that the test failures are
related to situations whereby a file should be locally modified, but
subversion isn't detecting the modification.
Are you perhaps running the tests on a FAT filesystem? FAT has a 2-
second time resolution for timestamps, so it's possible that a script
can append to a file and then ask 'svn' to stat the file all within 2
seconds. Subversion sees no change in timestamp, so it assumes that
the file hasn't changed.
