But /usr/src should be empty before the initial svn checkout, or there will be files in there that are unmanaged and can cause problems. The Subversion instructions mention this.

For those who know - its all there. For those who don't, its not obvious. The focus of the manual should be different from the man pages. I have reworked that warning to make it more clear.
