Re: Broken repository. svnadmin verify and dump report a checksum mismatch.

        Our SVN repository is on a single-CPU Linux server: many developers work on
their WC's on a dual 1.3Ghz Linux server. I would suggest that, if it is a
problem with an SMP environment, it may be more specifically a Windows SMP
problem. More information:

developer machine
        CPU: dual 1.3 Ghz PIII
        OS: Debian 3.1 (kernel 2.6.11.10)
