Tres,

uh, what a lot of work and sadly so unnecessary (though it doesn't 
hurt). What is actually recommended to ignore loads of files like *.pyc 
files is to add the following lines to your ~/.subversion/config file 
(something similar shoudl already be in there as an example):

[miscellany]
global-ignores = *.o *.lo *.la *.so *.pyc *.pyo

This option is generally useful when it is extremely unlikely that files 
of a certain kind are checked into a repository. The svn:ignore property 
is more useful when you want to ignore a specific file, e.g. access.log 
or Makefile.
