PySVN code is 2.6/3.0 compatible and uses a command to
backport the code to earlier versions.

As you spotted the big problem is exception syntax.
The backport command simple changes the syntax
from as to ",".

Atleast for pysvn the other differnces can to handled at runtime
after the exception syntax has been fixed.
