Oh! Duh.

Yeah, I just ran this command:

     svn pl -vR

...and it worked perfectly on an implicit-dot-target.

Of course the only problem now is that the verbose output of 'svn
proplist' isn't very friendly for piping through grep. If I were to
pipe through "grep 'color : green'", I'd see the matching lines, but
have no idea which items the matching properties were attached to.
That's because proplist outputs pairs of lines:

Properties on 'INSTALL':
  svn:keywords : LastChangedDate
Properties on 'gen-make.py':
  svn:executable : on
Properties on 'packages/freebsd/subversion':
  svn:ignore : work

Hmmmmmmmmmm.
