set svn:ignore on hp014/AA/EDK to hdl.

It's my impression that the patterns in global-ignores are matched against
simple names -- not full paths. This would mean your attempts can't work.
Admittedly the svnbook isn't at all clear on this point due to the common
ambiguity that "file name" sometimes means just the simple name within the
directory and sometimes means the whole path.
