More thoughts - what about this proposal:
1. We completely kill parsing of 1.6 metadata in .svn.
2. If possible than write common routine for both 1.6/1.7 (I assume the output 
of "svn --xml info" is consistent)
   (that also means no detecting and caching for 1.7 being a special case)
3. The only knowledge left about svn metadata would be checking for .svn in 
parental directories
   (which we later join with test for .git). This would avoid superfluous 
execution of binaries.

What do you think?
