Sounds good.

The race condition only would happen if you do the svn export without
specifying the revision to export.  In the case where HEAD is requested,
you get the revision using "svn info" then export that explicit
revision.  In the case where a revision is requested, you export that
anyway.

This eliminates the race and closes this hole.
