I looked into it. Unfortunately, I will not be able to test my hypotheses
soon (I won't have time next week at all), but I'll summarise them here
now.

For neon, I think (hypothesis #1) moving the "insert the UUID to the cache"
logic to svn_ra_neon__get_starting_props (and making __get_baseline_info() go
through __get_starting_props() instead of calling __get_props_resource()
directly) would prevent the duplicate request.

For serf, all requests for UUID go through the generic property retrieval
functions, so I assume (hypothesis #2) that the UUID would always be
put in the cache when it is first seen.

Does this sound right?

Daniel,
who will verify his hypotheses when he has some time again.
