Just in case anyone's not aware of this, svn will let you change the 
commit messages for old commits.  The command is something like

svn propset svn:log --revprop -r 12345 "Frob the foobar" .

By default, however, this is disabled by the pre-revprop-change hook.  
This chould be set up so that e.g. only the person responsible for a 
commit could subsequently change its log message.
