svnversion utility breaks build

/tmp> svn co http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk svn
/tmp> cd svn
[ build process skipped ]
/tmp/svn> subversion/svnversion/svnversion . /repos/svn/trunk
4402
/tmp/svn> cd ..
/tmp> subversion/svnversion/svnversion svn /repos/svn/trunk
/home/jw/local/l/subvers/src/svn/subversion/libsvn_subr/io.c:1751: (apr_err=2)
svn: No such file or directory
svn: svn_io_file_open: can't open `.svn/entries'

Summary: When started from outside the WC, svnversion tries to open an
administrative area in the parent directory of the WC. This breaks the
subversion build when one choose to have the build directory outside of
the source directory.
