This doesn't seem to occur over ra_local. Over ra_dav it does though.

Here's an example using svn.collab.net, AKA morbius.ch.collab.net:

$ svn co http://morbius.ch.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/www trunk-www
$ cd trunk-www/
$ svn switch http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/notes security
# here you should see the assert

Actually, now that I've tested this with both trunk and 1.3.x clients,
I appear to get the assert with trunk, but an error with 1.3.x. 1.3.x
errors out at line 169 of libsvn_client/checkout.c, but trunk does
not.

The original person who found this problem here had it in an existing
working copy, but with trunk you can also get into this situation via
switch on a newly checked out working copy.
