One plugs a memory leak. The other makes my above comment actually true, so trying to use this missing feature results in an error message that can help the frontend author instead of the silently broken conversion Andrew found. Then we can carefully add 'ls ""' support in 1.7.11. svn-fe should probably also be tweaked to handle this case without demanding support for the (nice) 'ls empty path' extension in fast-import backends, and this could even happen before 1.7.10. I can't promise to get to that quickly enough, though. Sensible?
