That check must be wrong, so. I'd like to fix this, but have
no access to Windows. Can you fix it?

On Unix, this fails with:

$ svn list file://SERVER/svn/TestRepo
subversion/libsvn_ra_local/ra_plugin.c:454: (apr_err=170000)
svn: Unable to open an ra_local session to URL
subversion/libsvn_ra_local/split_url.c:123: (apr_err=170000)
svn: Local URL 'file://server/svn/TestRepo' contains unsupported hostname

From reading the code, that failure is what we expect to happen.

Then please convert all remaining asserts to either SVN_ERR_ASSERT_NO_RETURN
(for functions which do not return svn_error_t *, see r34334)
or SVN_ERR_ASSERT (for functions which return svn_error_t *).

After that your client can intercept all those errors.
