You're forgetting svn_wc_status_none here. That's not checked, and
that's a status which is also returned for unversioned items (at least
sometimes).

Maybe you can explain the difference of
svn_wc_status_unversioned
and
svn_wc_status_none
to me. I've read the API-docs but that's not really mentioned. At least
I haven't found an explanation why there are two statuses for (IMHO) the
same.
