...$ svn cp -r 5 http://host/path/foo .

It doesn't work over ra_dav because we can't get to the r==5 baseline
collection (BC). We ask /path/foo for a property to reach the BC. But
/path/foo doesn't exist in the HEAD, so things blow up.

I'm not sure what the proper solution is. The sucky one is to get a 404,
peel off one component and ask the parent. Repeat until a PROPFIND comes
back. Get the relpath of that (grand)parent, add the components back on that
you peeled off, and compose that with the BC href.

Urk.

(this would happen in ra_dav's get_baseline_info)
