Differences in tree conflict reporting between 1.8 and 1.9 (possible regression?)

[Marc Strapetz]

For a working copy which has been checked out using SVN 1.8, "svn info" 
output is slightly different between version 1.8 and 1.9 -- for 1.9 the 
local *dir* is missing.

For 1.8:
$ svn info a/b
Path: a\b
Name: b
Repository Root: ...
Repository UUID: ...
Node Kind: none
Schedule: normal
Tree conflict: local *dir* missing, incoming dir edit upon merge
  Source  left: (dir) ^/trunk/a/b@1
  Source right: (dir) ^/branch/a/b@4

For 1.9:

$ svn info a/b
Path: a\b
Name: b
Repository Root: ...
Repository UUID: ...
Node Kind: none
Schedule: normal
Tree conflict: local missing or deleted or moved away, incoming dir edit 
upon merge
  Source  left: (dir) ^/trunk/a/b@1
  Source right: (dir) ^/branch/a/b@4

In terms of JavaHL this means that for version 1.8:

info.conflicts[0].nodeKind="dir"

while for version 1.9:

info.conflicts[0].nodeKind="none"

I can provide a test repository to reproduce this difference.
