A better alternative is to go down into some subdirectories and update those
first. That will partition the entire update down to manageable pieces. If
you do some subdirs, then they'll be omitted from the update report (since
the subdir is entirely at rev 2, it is no longer mentioned). Finally, after
some subdirs get updated, then you go back up to the root the WC and update
that.

That's a good "user strategy" to work around the problem. But we should
still have some fixes in the code...
