A google search led me to a thread in the mailing list archive of

It seems that Andrew has come across the same build error fairly
recently, and that this is/was a subversion problem.
So, Andrew, any ideas why this error appears when I try to build the
jars based on the code from the 10.1.2.1 source archive?
Yes, there is a problem with svnversion in subversion 1.1.x and
earlier that causes an additional carriage return to be appended to
directories that are reported as 'exported', even when run with the -
n option. The property ${changenumber} which contains the version
reported by subversion then contains an additional carriage return,
which in turn breaks the manifest file format by setting the top-
level Sealed attribute apart from the rest of the top-level
attributes as you noted.
I checked in a fix to the trunk so that Gump could continue to run.
It's a rather simple patch, which you could apply to the build.xml
from the source distribution, attached to the end of this mail.
This problem has been fixed in Subversion 1.2.0 and above. Upgrading
to the latest subversion will also remedy the problem. For this
reason, I would consider it a non-showstopper for holding up the
10.1.2.1 release, but I will merge the fix over to the 10.1 branch
for future releases.
