No, they won't work. svn_wc_is_adm_dir will return TRUE for .svn, but
the name actually used when looking for metadata will be _svn. Note that
svn_wc_is_adm_dir only tells you if the given names is reserved for
admin directory names (and therefore should not be, e.g., added to the
repository). svn_wc_get_adm_dir will return the name that's actually in use.
