[wplug] SVN upgrade -> mismatched RA version

[Shane Liesegang]

Hmmm. I figured I might have to match the repository, but I'm getting the
error without ever even trying to connect to anything (svn help). Which
leads me to think there's some kind of program config problem I need to deal
with before even trying to connect to a repo.

Curiouser and curiouser...
