[FIX]: svn 1.5.x 'svn add' fails

Hi All,

[error log]
(2)No such file or directory: An unknown activity was specified in the 
URL. This is generally caused by a problem in the client software. [400, #0]

If you get this error when trying to commit a new file / dir
aka
$ touch a
$ svn add a
$ svn ci -m "test" a

You can fix this client side by recompiling the SVN binary.

./configure [options] --with-serf=/path --without-neon
make all
sudo make install

I'm pretty sure that 1.5.0 doesn't have this issue, but I know for a 
fact 1.5.4 does.  Not sure where it was introduced though.

HTH
