You could cheat and just return [] for listdir. It would still *work* even if
it lets your obsolete-packs directory get bloated. The next push over something
other than webdav would clean it up. As would someone manually (or by cron)
running 'bzr pack' [not over webdav]. Or a cron job to just delete entries in
that directory.

It seems a little silly to completely disable it for this.
