We had a similar need in Subclipse. This is how we implemented it in
svnClientAdapter library:

    public void mkdir(SVNUrl url, boolean makeParents, String message)
            throws SVNClientException {
        if (makeParents) {
            SVNUrl parent = url.getParent();
            if (parent != null) {
                        ISVNInfo info = null;
                        try {
                            info = this.getInfo(parent);
                        } catch (SVNClientException e) {
                        }
                        if (info == null)
                            this.mkdir(parent, makeParents, message);
            }
        }
        this.mkdir(url, message);
    }

The svnClientAdapter code is just slightly different from JavaHL so it
should be easy enough to convert the idea being used.
