Just some information for anyone trying to figure this out.
svn interfacing with gnome-keyring seems to work for me in current squeeze. But I got exactly this problem (same error message "Password for 'login' GNOME keyring: svn: GNOME Keyring is locked and we are non-interactive") when I installed the backport version of the subversion package on lenny, 1.6.12dfsg-1~bpo50+2. (a different machine that shares files but not the home directory.) The lenny machine is also amd64, while the squeeze one i386. Not sure if that is important.
The squeeze version does seem to work right because the password I entered does now show in the gnome-keyring and the entry in .subversion/auth/svn.simple lists passtype as gnome-keyring and it works.
Thanks for the above workaround hint to keep svn from trying to query the gnome-keyring. I can live with that until I upgrade.
