Huh? Did you really type 'svn status' with no path and get a path
with several directories in the output? Perhaps you really ran
'svn status branches/page_header_redesign/cgi-bin', in which case you
need to set svn:ignore on that directory.

'.*.swp' works as expected on my system. Doug, if the answer is not
the path issue above, then perhaps you have trailing white-space in
the property. Try

$ svn pg svn:ignore | od -c
