I forgot that svn.collab.net already has its own self-signed server
certificate. With our new auth providers, we now get a warning
similar to what you see when you connect to an unknown ssh host or
weird ssl web site:

% svn ls https://svn.collab.net/repos/svn
Error validating server certficate: Unknown certificate issuer. Accept? (y/N): y

README
branches/
clients/
tags/
trunk/

$ svn ls https://svn.collab.net/repos/svn
Error validating server certficate: Unknown certificate issuer. Accept? (y/N): n
svn: RA layer request failed
svn: The path was not part of a repository
subversion/libsvn_ra_dav/util.c:81: (apr_err=175002)
svn: PROPFIND of /: Certificate verification failed

Of course, if I had put a pointer to a file full of trusted CAs in my
~/.subversion/servers file, then neon could have automatically
verified the server cert for me, rather than resort to the prompting
provider.
