I think I found an API documentation bug.
svn_types.h specifies for svn_dirent_t.size:

  /** length of file text, or 0 for directories */
  svn_filesize_t size;

However, (almost?) all implementations set it to
SVN_INVALID_FILESIZE for directories. This is also
what we do for svn_io_dirent_t.size.

I discovered this as r1818578 broke our Perl tests.
The same test makes it clear that no API user could
have successfully used the API as documented.

Therefore, I suggest to change the API doc to match
the implementation, check the code for consistency
and add an entry to our errata list.

Below the necessary patch w/o erratum.

[[[
Fix inconsistent handling of svn_dirent_t.size for directories.

Most code uses SVN_INVALID_FILESIZE for them, so change the docs to match
that fact and update all users to consistently follow the new docstring.

* subversion/include/svn_types.h
  (svn_dirent_t): Change documentation for SIZE.

* subversion/libsvn_ra_local/ra_plugin.c
  (svn_ra_local__get_dir): Return the new default for directories.

* subversion/libsvn_ra_serf/list.c
  (item_closed): Be sure to default to SVN_INVALID_FILESIZE.

* subversion/libsvn_repos/list.c
  (fill_dirent): Set SIZE consistently with other RA layers.
