I've isolated this problem to something interesting.  I added the 
following line in the PullUpdate.html file:

$RT::Logger->error("Rev: $rev   Actor: $actor");    <-------- Added
my $user = RT::CurrentUser->new($actor);
unless ( $user->id ) {
     $user->LoadByCols( Gecos => $actor );
}

unless ( $user->id ) {
     die "Unknown user";
}

and in the log am getting the following:

Oct 10 19:16:45 rt RT: Rev: 114   Actor: klinebl 
(/opt/rt3/share/html/SVN/PullUpdate.html:39)


The $actor variable contains the name of the user (me) who commited the 
change... not the "RT-SVN" user that Max created.  Since klinebl is not 
an RT user the error message "Unknown user" is correct.  The version of
subversion is:  subversion-1.1.1-2.1, compiled for RHEL 4.

Does this point to the problem?
