The REPORT method is what the svn client sends when it wants to update
a working copy. The server response indicates which files need to be
updated.

This is probably a known issue, #733, whereby a PROPFIND on a
repository directory with a zillion entries takes too much
memory/time, and thus neon times out.

And this whole 1GB ram thing is bug #860, which is a memory leak I'm
hunting down right now.
