Subversion keyword expansion warning

Dear all
David H. DeWolf and I stumbled in a pretty-serious problem with 
Subversion, already filed as a bug:
http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=1663
It seems that, under certain circumstances, SVN's keywords are not 
expanded. In particular we had problem preparing patches, because we 
both had some conflicts, caused by the expansion or not-expansion of the 
keywords.
This bug has been fixed in Subversion 1.4.0 but, for the moment, we all 
should pay attention to keyword expansion when preparing patches, 
eventually manually deleting the file and then re-updating it.

Ciao
Antonio

I forgot an important thing: I sent an email to the Subclipse users 
mailing list, this is the thread:
http://subclipse.tigris.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=users&msgNo=8411
It seems also that every plugin based on an older version of JavaHL is 
also affected by the bug, for example Subclipse, I don't know if 
IntelliJ IDEA has the same problem, but probably it is so.
If you use Eclipse 3.2, there is the 1.1 version of Subversion that 
fixes the problem, though they claim it could be unstable:
