Correct.

I have not reproduced this problem either -- am just reading code. So, what
previously I writ, and what followeth from my hand, might be, as they say in
the Greek, "hogwash".

But in status.c there lives a call to svn_wc_text_modified_p, which calls
svn_wc__text_modified_internal_p, which calls compare_and_verify, which does
translation-y things (and got heavily reworked between 1.3.2 and 1.4.0).
