Public bug reported: APR releases before 1.4.6 have a faulty truncate() implementation that can cause svn fsfs repository corruption. The next release of svn 1.6.x has a workaround for the issue, see:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=1240892 But since svn added the workaround, APR released 1.4.6 which has the fix in it: http://www.apache.org/dist/apr/CHANGES-APR-1.4 So updating to 1.4.6 will resolve any corruption issues in svn (due to this issue).
