Description

Try to commit with a bad username and/or password stored in your wc.
Subversion correctly bounces you out with an error, trouble is, it's
the least informative error you ever saw. :-)

   svn_error: #21703 : <RA layer's server request failed>
     The server request failed (neon:4 http:401) (MKACTIVITY
      /repos/svn/$svn/act//e221ddd9-d11d-a3a4-a5cc8e80b85d)

Mmm, ain't that pretty?
