Well, in theory there could be other reasons (all the client knows for
sure is that the server excluded this node). But in practice, as far
as I know, failed path-based authorization is the only reason for
server-exclusion that has been implemented in the standard SVN server.

Specifically, an interrupted connection cannot cause 'server-excluded'
nodes. Those would get a 'not-present' (for files) or 'incomplete'
(for directories) status in the wc.db, as far as I remember.
