Not checking for the return from the hashtable was NULL is incorrect.
So, r2504 should stay.

Regardless, my other patch that I'm trying to get reviewed does
change all of the lock_dir's to be wrapped around SVN_ERR. I'm just
waiting for either svn_wc_process_committed() to be fixed or someone
to say that I can commit even with that function broken. -- justin
