Yes this sounds exactly like

At first I thought this was
http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=1431
but the symptom is different. In the above example, there were no
changes in the working copy other than a property change to "."?
Is anyone else using your repository, perhaps making changes down in
the tree (thus making the directories up near the top very likely to
be newer than what any given working copy has)?
If this reproduces
$ svn st -q
$ svn propset svn:ignore "...new value..." .
$ property `svn:ignore' set on ''
$ svn st -q
M .
$ svn ci -N -m "Update ignores."
*even* when no one else is using the repository at all from the start
of the recipe to the end, then yeah, I'd say there's a bug!
