Node getBaseVersion causes Exception after node removal

When a versioned node gets removed it still can be found by identifier (should it be?).
More importantly node.getBaseVersion() causes UnsupportedRepositoryOperationException like this:
javax.jcr.UnsupportedRepositoryOperationException: This operation requires that the node be versionable (that is, isNodeType("mix:versionable") == true)
