$ svn st
X foo

Performing status on external item at 'foo':
svn: E155021: This client is too old to work with the working copy at
'/Users/brane/src/svn/test/bar/foo' (format 32).
You need to get a newer Subversion client. For more details, see
  http://subversion.apache.org/faq.html#working-copy-format-change

The upgrade of the foo external working copy (using the client from the
better-pristines branch) worked without a hitch. So we currently do not
have any logic in the code to prevent partial upgrades or, in other
words, to prevent mixed-format working copies.

This needs fixing ... preferably on trunk.
