Thanks for your responses. May I suggest that this information be added to the 
Javadoc of affected classes and to [1]?

Subject: Re: SVN*Client operations reentrant?

Hello Biorn,

It is better to use another instance of SVNClientManager (and
SVN*Client) to call SVN*Client methods from within callbacks.
Otherwise, there may be issues with conflicting write access to the
working copy, authentication and other network operations.
