Huh? You are now asserting only that there is some common ancestor.
Previously you were asserting that ABS_ADDED_PATH was the common
ancestor. That's very different.

Unless I'm still asleep, this block of code should say:

             /* abs_added_path had better be a child of abs_target_path
                or something is *really* wrong. */
             SVN_ERR_ASSERT(svn_path_is_child(abs_target_path,
                                              abs_added_path,
                                              iterpool));
             common_ancestor_path = abs_target_path;
