I have no idea if it will help, but I think that hgsubversion has a
way of synching a repository when the svnsync API is not available
that involves getting the log of revisions and manually recreating the
transaction.  If this is true, it would seem like they might have had
to deal with similar issues.  That said, I know they are writing
directly to the SVN API and so maybe some of the output is different.
