Hm, you're right.
When standing in a working copy, and doing 'svn update' on a
subdirectory that is not under version control, the above error
message appears.

That's misleading.

To reproduce:
-----
C:\>svn co https://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/build/win32 TestTest
A TestTest\svn.ico
A TestTest\svn_config.dsp
A TestTest\vc6-build.bat.in
A TestTest\make_dist.py
A TestTest\svn.rc
A TestTest\svn_locale.dsp
A TestTest\make_dist.conf.template
 U TestTest
Checked out revision 13420.

C:\>cd TestTest
C:\TestTest>mkdir Test2
C:\TestTest>svn update Test2
svn: Working copy 'Test2' not locked

Off topic, that's a discussion for the subversion users mailing list,
not this list.

That said, the command you're searching for probably is:

svn checkout http://<repo_server>/<repo> <new (nonexisting) dest folder>
