all testing/path/test_svn*.py files pass for me
(you need to install the "svn" command line version).
It's actually kind of astonishing that it is working
for years without much breakage ...

Ronny, i guess you'd like to have a nicer leaner less messy 
base than what "py" provides for pytest -- and i kind of agree
and think it'd be good to continue moving code out of py and 
directly into pytest.  path.local() is probably one of the
bigger ones now that py.code's functionality is part of pytest.

So all in all i suggest to consider leaving "py" mostly alone 
and move towards removing the dependency alltogether.
