The reason for that seems that svn scheme did not support relative paths
to being with (at least when urlparse was originally written).

>From 1.5 onwards (released sometime in 2008), it has the support for
relative urls and can work with urljoin (by giving relative paths).

Since the support was added in 2008 itself, I am okay to consider this
as a bug in Python and fix it in 2.7,3.2 and 3.3
