[Bug 957727] [NEW] apr: update to 1.4.6 to fix svn fsfs repository corruption

[Blair Zajac]

Public bug reported:

APR releases before 1.4.6 have a faulty truncate() implementation that
can cause svn fsfs repository corruption.  The next release of svn 1.6.x
has a workaround for the issue, see:

http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=1240892

But since svn added the workaround, APR released 1.4.6 which has the fix
in it:

http://www.apache.org/dist/apr/CHANGES-APR-1.4

So updating to 1.4.6 will resolve any corruption issues in svn (due to
this issue).

Thanks,
Blair (svn committer)
