svn:externals problems

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

I've been having problems with svn:externals. Anyone else seen these?

The value of svn:externals in these examples for ./tool/ is:

pant http://repository.pediddle.net/pant/trunk/

* On Linux, after clearing the ./tool directory and running "svn up", I get:

  cartman:build$ svn up
  A tool
  Updated to revision 3.
  
  Fetching external item into tool/pant
  subversion/libsvn_subr/io.c:1613: (apr_err=2, src_err=0)
  svn: No such file or directory
  svn: svn_io_file_open: can't open `tool/pant/.svn/lock'

* On Windows XP, it appears to work fine (at least over the Samba share I'm
using).

If I change the value of svn:externals to include a trailing slash after the
"pant", as in:

pant/ http://repository.pediddle.net/pant/trunk/

then,

* On Linux, I get:

  cartman:build$ svn up tool
  A tool
  Updated to revision 2.
  svn: subversion/libsvn_subr/path.c:165: svn_path_join:
  Assertion `is_canonical_nts (component, clen)' failed.
  Aborted

* On Windows XP over a Samba share, I get:

  Fetching external item into tool/pant/
  svn: The system cannot find the path specified.
  svn: svn_io_file_open: can't open `tool/pant//.svn/tmp/auth/username'

So, has anyone tested svn:externals functionality recently? I don't remember
having a problem back around Oct 8, but I didn't really test it.

Does anyone have any ideas for a workaround on Linux?

Thanks!
