Some virus scanners hold onto file locks for their on-access scans for
too long, causing issues for the Subversion libraries. IIRC the
libraries do wait & reattempt their operation, but it can eventually
fail.
In my early days of using SVN I found that I had to disable Norton
AV's auto-protect (on-access scanner) for my .svn directories if I
wanted things to work smoothly.
