See issue 3346; early 1.6 versions aborted on committing from root. (And
older subversion releases didn't allow committing, or sometimes broke in
other ways).

The issue is fixed for 1.7 (and tested for in our testsuite) and can't be
backported to 1.6 without breaking our versioning policy. (Major changes all
over the wc library were required).

For more details on the work involved for this issue see also issues #1495,
#1711, #2028, #2556.
