Description

"svnrdump load" ends with the following weird behavior in *interactive mode*.

<snip>
vijayaguru@maverick:/tmp$ svnrdump load http://localhost:1234/svn/testrepo < 
test.dump
Authentication realm: <http://localhost:1234> subversion trunk repository
Password for 'vijay':

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
ATTENTION!  Your password for authentication realm:

<http://localhost:1234> subversion trunk repository

can only be stored to disk unencrypted!  You are advised to configure
your system so that Subversion can store passwords encrypted, if
possible.  See the documentation for details.

You can avoid future appearances of this warning by setting the value
of the 'store-plaintext-passwords' option to either 'yes' or 'no' in
'/home/vijayaguru/.subversion/servers'.

It checks for "yes or no" in the standard input(dump file). As it could not find 
one, it prints the prompt message repeatedly(as many lines in the dumpfile) and 
fails with the error.
