Turns out there is a reason to check out the top level URL supplied
to svn_load_dirs. It checks out the top level directory so the
script can then check if any directories given to svn_load_dirs on
the command line need to be created.

So in your case,

> perl /usr/local/bin/svn_load_dirs.pl
> http://sky@svn.perl.org/ponie/vendor/parrot current
> /Users/sky/Documents/Projects/import/parrot/

It checkout out http://sky@svn.perl.org/ponie/vendor/parrot and then
checks if parrot exists. If it doesn't, then the script creates it
and then does an import.

So the code will have to check if things exist using hits against
the server.
