The following command:

   svn co http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/branches/build/win32/

reports

   svn: URL 'http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/branches/build/win32'
doesn't exist

which is to be expected, as I made up the URL.

However, if I do

   svn co http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/build/win32/

(which is valid) followed by

   svn switch http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/branches/build/win32/ win32

The response is:

   svn: REPORT of '/repos/svn/!svn/vcc/default': 200 OK (http://svn.collab.net)

It's not exactly obvious that it really is an error (200 OK looks OK)
and the message says nothing about what went wrong (assuming that
something did go wrong).
