implementing pre-commit-hook to prevent overwriting files under tags-dir

Hi,

I found a script in the svn.collab.net repo that is supposed to prevent
overwriting content under the tags-dir.
Since this script is enabled, any commit fails with exit code 255, like:

>Some of selected resources were not committed.
>A repository hook failed
>svn: Commit failed (details follow):
>svn: Übertragen wird durch Aktion pre-commit behindert (Exit-Code 255) ohne
Ausgabe.

The strange thing is, there is no single "exit 255" command in the script.

To debug this, I simply used the following lines in the script:

echo "starting script" >&2
exit 1

But still, the commit-operation fails WITHOUT the message "starting script"
and with exit-code 255 instead of exit-code 1.

The script has permissions 644 and is owned by root.
The installation is collabnet-rpm-package 1.5.2.

Any idea what is going wrong?
