If I do that, then I get the following, much better result:
$ ./subversion/svn/svn ls file://./foo
../../repos/trunk/subversion/svn/list-cmd.c:383,
../../repos/trunk/subversion/libsvn_client/list.c:578,
../../repos/trunk/subversion/libsvn_client/list.c:368,
../../repos/trunk/subversion/libsvn_client/ra.c:540,
../../repos/trunk/subversion/libsvn_client/ra.c:417,
../../repos/trunk/subversion/libsvn_ra/ra_loader.c:482:
(apr_err=SVN_ERR_RA_ILLEGAL_URL)
svn: E170000: Unable to connect to a repository at URL 'file://./foo'
../../repos/trunk/subversion/libsvn_ra_local/ra_plugin.c:583:

svn: E170000: Unable to open an ra_local session to URL
../../repos/trunk/subversion/libsvn_ra_local/split_url.c:43,
../../repos/trunk/subversion/libsvn_subr/dirent_uri.c:2410:

This kind of makes sense.
