36-4m looks like a transaction id, not a revision number. This is
expected, because a pre-commit hook is given a transaction id (TXN) as
its second argument (see the comments in pre-commit.tmpl that comes
with your subversion installation). When the pre-commit hook is run,
there is no revision created yet, so no revision number, only a
transaction id.

I suppose this svn-hook-*postcommit*-review.py only works from
post-commit hook, not from pre-commit hook ... since it only accepts a
revision number.
