Oh, sorry, Stefan. I missed that it doesn't error when the cwd is
repos/db. (When the cwd is elsewhere it does error.)

The fix is to convert PATH (a dirent) to an absolute path before passing
it in svn_repos_create() to svn_repos_find_root_path(). If someone
could remind me what the APR wrapper for os.path.abspath() is, I'll
commit a fix.

Thanks.

Daniel
