No, doesn't matter.

Since I still can't reproduce this (nor can fellow team member
Guilherme), I'd appreciate if you can somehow figure out the relevant
difference between your two machines - whether it really is the kernel
version, or something else.  It seems quite unlikely to me that a
kernel version would affect this type of application crash.

Meanwhile, I'll try to arrange a test with kernel 2.4.27.

I'm confused - I asked about two different tests - did they both fail?
First, the 'svn diff', and second, using subversion 1.2.3 with libsvn0
1.3.0.

Thanks.  I don't see anything obviously wrong in the strace output,
though.

Thanks!
