Ok. I did that.
As far as the first remark is concerned, I'm looking back at the
adjusted patch and I'm wondering: What *is* the difference between 'No
entry found' and "'%s' is unversioned"? Some errors have the 'no entry
found' (which is also a different result code!) but I can't for the
life of me figure out why we would have different result codes for
these situations, especially because they're detected by the same
condition...
Anybody any ideas?

Erik.
