I've investigated further, and as far as I can see this is a bug in
libsvn_ra_svn. See issue 1752 for details. Listing or retrieving
properties (at least on a directory, haven't tried on a file yet) just
doesn't seem to work via ra_svn, and we don't have any tests for that
(that i can find) so nobody noticed until now.
