No, but you have to set the flag when used on a directory since the
function will fail if it's not (the same way you can't turn a file
into a directory, you can't turn a directory into a file).

System files are defined as "A file or directory that the operating
system uses a part of, or uses exclusively. "
.svn folders are not used by the system, neither in part nor exclusively.
So I don't think we should abuse that flag...
