No, that's not enough information. Please give us a reproduction recipe or say
which function you called and what the arguments were.

Heh! It looks like that just confused the original poster, and is not actually
the relevant problem.

projorpheon ccf: The path printed in the error message is the location in the
Subversion source code of the assert statement that detected a problem; the
erroneous path is, unfortunately, not shown. Therefore the problem that you
encountered has nothing to do with hard-coded paths.

(The fact that an absolute path is shown in the error message is not ideal, but
not really a problem.)
