Exactly.

On baseline collections, the <response> element says it is for
"/!svn/bc/52790/" rather than "/svn/!svn/bc/52790/" (BUG!). Therefore,
the properties get associated with the wrong path, and when ra_serf
attempts to find the <resourcetype> property for path
"/svn/!svn/bc/52790/" it does not find it.

Neon uses a different strategy for determining "is this a directory?",
so a property lookup isn't used, so it doesn't break on this
mis-labeled path.

Does anybody know how to report this bug to the Codeplex people?
