New description:

 Here's the description from one of our developers...

 Trac is causing Subversion database corruption and I had to disable it.

 Even though Trac only reads database, every read operation locks it, like
 it's going to do transaction. That doesn't jive well with normal svn
 client that uses svn_dav Apache module to access database. In the end, two
 different access methods cause DB corruption (we didn't lose anything with
 nightly backup and incremental dump on commit). I don't expect to re-
 activate Trac soon (soon=weeks or months).

 Don't close as anonymous or without a comment.
