Wild guess (ie. not tested at all): try changing this line:

> the_files=`$SVNLOOK changed -t "$TXN" "$REPO" | $SED -n
> 's/^\(A\|.U\)\s*\(.*[^/]\)$/\2/p'`

to have double-quotes around the \2.

Just out of curiosity: why? Normally needs-lock is only a good idea for
binary or otherwise unmergable files. Having files locked all the time
is a major pain in the butt, especially if you have distributed
developers.
