Description

Using revision 6482 of cvs2svn.py to convert this repository

   http://i.cantcode.com/~jack/xiphrepo-test.tar.gz

with this command line

   $ cvs2svn.py --create -s svnrepos xiphrepo-test

fails during the 'svnadmin load' stage, because the dumpfile has these
two things in this order both in revision 91:

   Node-path: branches/volsung_20010721/ao/src
   Node-action: delete

   [...]

   Node-path: branches/volsung_20010721/ao/src/plugins/irix
   Node-kind: dir
   Node-action: add
   Prop-content-length: 10
   Content-length: 10

   PROPS-END

Oops.  There's nothing between them that would cause the .../ao/src/
directory to get recreated, either.  Naturally, the loader errors in
libsvn_fs/tree.c:179:not_found() when it tries to run open_path to
create the .../irix/ subdir.
