Replying to myself one more time to say that, yes, serf does
share the problem:

1 cmdline% ./prop_tests.py --url http://localhost:23039 --http-library serf 12
EXPECTED STDERR (regexp):
.*pre-revprop-change
ACTUAL STDERR:
EXCEPTION: SVNLineUnequal
FAIL: prop_tests.py 12: set, get, and delete a revprop change
