That depends on where you look at it.

This error is raised in the ra layer (Inside svn_ra_reparent) where you have
a connection to a single repository via its url: In that location it should
fail on every url not pointing to exactly the same repository.

I think this issue is caused by the ra_serf code that removes default port
numbers when you connect to a repository by using APR. Neon used its own
rules so it wouldn't fail.

But with our strict rules that any uri passed to our apis must be canonical,
we shouldn't see this problem.

But as I found out (and fixed in r1137927) our uri canonicalization for user
provided uris didn't check port numbers at all.
