Description

Patch by Tobias Schäfer <tobiasschaefer_at_gmx.de>.  This patch creates a new
class of error (SVNRepositoryCreateFailure) in the test suite, and raises it
when svnadmin cannot be found.  This can happen when Subversion is built in a
directory other than the source directory.  The actual problem (svnadmin not
being found) can be addressed by adjusting the paths to the svnadmin and svn
executables, but this patch doesn't do that.  It only causes a correct error
message to be displayed when it happens.
