It certainly could. And "!svn" could also be a real top-level directory.
That is the whole reason that the prefix is adjustable with an Apache

But do we worry about this edge case in the auto-recache situation? Nope.
Note that somebody would also have to have a 'ver' subdir under that, and
subdirs with revision numbers (or really old node id values), etc.
