I haven't had any luck reproducing it yet outside of my repository.  It doesn't
seem to be entirely size related since I found bigger transactions in
the Subversion
repository that didn't choke it.  I've added some debugging print statements
and it seems that the readlines() call in launch is what is dying.

p.wait() is returning 256 instead of the normal 0 for a successful run.

I'm running on Mac OS X 10.4.7 using Python 2.4.3
