Saving SVN-managed files over Tramp fails

[Magnus Henoch]

I had opened a file on a remote host over Tramp.  The file is in an
SVN tree.  When trying to save the file, I get the following
backtrace.  (I don't have SVN installed on the local machine)

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Running svn...FAILED (status 127)")
