Well ... there _is_ :-( ... but it doesn't make the current situation
any better. (Those logs below are taken from Subversion 1.1.4 but I've
just tested 1.2 and the same thing happends)

Here are two "svn update"s ... the first one demonstrating the aditional
problem -- svn fetching the external item which has never been requested
-- and the second one show the same problem as the message I'm replying
to.

"svn update" appears to not only not work with -N for external items,
but the behaviour of -N is reversed.
