Without the patch you may have leaked baton.err, but you introduced
the use of the 'err' variable here. With the patch, you may leak 'err'
but not baton.err:

SVN_ERR returns an error if it finds one, continuing execution if it
doesn't. This means that if
svn_ra_dav__maybe_store_auth_info_after_result() generates an error,
you won't leak *that* error (in the old situation). In the new
situation, you don't use SVN_ERR() anymore, meaning that you need to
dispose of errors yourself.

I hope I was a bit less cryptic this time :-)

bye,

Erik.
