Subversion Exception in 1.7.1/2

I have just started to use the svn:externals keyword.

I am checking out a svn folder to Windows desktop, but have set the svn:externals property on this folder to check out a lib at C:/lib:

svn:externals <repo-path-for-lib> C:/lib

The lib is a svn repository containing only binary files and no folders.

When I check out/update (the folder with the property set) and the lib is not present, everything gets checked out as expected but get the following error:

External failed: C:\lib
Error: In file
Error: 'D:\Development\SVN\Releases\TortoiseSVN-1.7.2\ext\subversion\subversion\libsvn_wc\wc_db.c'
Error: line 2890: assertion failed (svn_dirent_is_ancestor(wcroot->abspath,
Error: local_abspath))
