Subversion's script bindings (which are used in git-svn) can cause segmentation faults simply by corrupting the stack under memory pressure. This bug was already fixed in Subversion's trunk, but that fix did not make it into Subversion 1.9.4. Let's forward-port that patch manually. See http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/298427 for full details. Reported by Ioannis Kappas. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>
