I'll do that as soon as I catch up with the rest of my mail.

The one in the Emacs tree is supposed to provide a superset of the
functionality of the one in the Subversion tree, except for the fact
that it does not work with Emacs-21.X.

Whether it does provide a superset or not is actually an open question
because the code is completely different (the sync'ing is "featurewise"
rather than "codewise").
