If we had an off-by-one bug in the length of the object returned from svn_checksum_create, this test wouldn't catch it. I know others have said not to hardcode a 32 here. But you're already hardcoding MD5. I'd say if there's no other convenient alternative, hardcoding the knowledge that "md5 is 128 bits" (32 hex digits) seems better than testing that two objects created by the same constructor are the same length. I mean, to extend this test to other checksum kinds would require something of a rewrite anyway.
