[TSVN] Phantom "svn:externals" breaks commits...

From: Tim Van Holder <tim.vanholder_at_gmail.com>

The setup:
- Windows XP SP2
- svn repository imported from cvs using cvs2svn
- checkout of the trunk using a file:// URL
- TortoiseSVN installed (1.1.6) - overlays work just fine (except the
ones in the folder pane of explorer don't update probably, which is
probably an Explorer limitation)

The problem:
When I try to commit a folder (typically the top folder, but it also
occurs with other folders), the dialog comes up, a partial list of
changed files is shown, and TortoiseSVN claims that some items are not
shown because they are inside folders included with svn:externals.
However, both a find/grep and svn propget confirm that svn:externals
is not in use anywhere.
This misbehaviour is breaking commits for me; I'm forced to use the
command-line client (which makes it much less convenient to do
selective commits).
It would be helpful if TSVN at least said which files/folders (or even
just the first) it's leaving out (and/or why it thinks they're
external); even better would be to include them in the dialog, but to
disable their checkbox and listing them as external.
