 Only one level. OK, recurse isn't the right word. Here is an
 example; note no output for the first case:
 
 julianfoad@linux:~/src/subversion svn status build/
 julianfoad@linux:~/src/subversion svn status build/*
 __ build/PrintPath
 __ build/buildcheck.sh
 __ build/gen_base.py

Umm. Did you hack your local copy of svn to print out underscores in
the first two columns? I removed the underscores from the client
status output waaaaaaaaay back in 3396 (!).

So this is making me wonder if you're running an ancient client or
something else odd is going on.
