There are two issues here:
1. your moved directories aren't probably going to be merged properly
to the mirrored_trunk, as svk 1 doesn't quite do the right thing for
copied or renamed nodes across merge.  This is fixed in svk 2.
2. the rename would then results in massive amount of node addition,
rather than just a copy.  the leak might be coming from there.  Though
it might have been fixed in svk 2.
