APR devs, Subversion devs:
On Subversion's Mac OS buildbots it appears that apr_hash_overlay()
sometimes returns a hash containing duplicate keys, which (as I
understand it) should be impossible.
We had an issue where some 'svnmover' tests were failing only on Mac
OS buildbots. I added some debugging in Subversion commits r1719056,
r1719067, r1719072, r1719074.
Buildbot result:
https://ci.apache.org/builders/svn-x64-macosx-bdb/builds/485/steps/Test%20ra_svn%2Bbdb
--> debug output in 'faillog' shows duplicate keys in hash:
"union_children={A, iota, foo, boozle, boozle, iota}"
I replaced apr_hash_overlay() with my own simple re-implementation:
http://svn.apache.org/r1719089 -- re-implement hash overlay
Buildbot result:
https://ci.apache.org/builders/svn-x64-macosx-bdb/builds/486/steps/Test%20ra_svn%2Bbdb
--> tests pass
(in this step 5 of the buildbot; other tests still fail in steps 4 and 6)
The bot's config-log shows APR v1.4.5, APR-util v1.3.12.
Next questions should be: Is this a known bug? Can we reproduce it in
a small test case?
