The problem you're seeing here is that version 1.4.x uses a newer format
of the working copy than version 1.3.x. As long as the working copy is
in 1.3 format, the status fetching needed by the context menu (to
determine which entries to show) doesn't always work. But once the
working copy format is updated (happens automatically with almost every
Subversion action you do), it will work again correctly.
Normal status fetching is not affected, but the 'ignore list' stuff is
because there we have to not only fetch the status but read the
properties of the selected entry.
