Bug report regarding ..\..\.. on windows

On Windows and with svn 1.3.0

   C:\temp\svnbugreport\d1\d2\d3>svn update ..\..\..\wc

does not work ("Skipped '..\wc'"), whereas

   C:\temp\svnbugreport\d1\d2>svn update ..\..\wc

works ("Updated to revision 1.").
I would expect that both commands are equivalent.
Details see below.

Cheers, Folker

***** Batch file to reproduce:

setlocal
rmdir c:\svnbugreport /S /Q
mkdir c:\svnbugreport
cd c:\svnbugreport
svn --version
svnadmin create repos
svn checkout file:///svnbugreport/repos wc
svn mkdir file:///svnbugreport/repos/something -m "Test"
mkdir d1
mkdir d1\d2
mkdir d1\d2\d3
cd d1\d2\d3
svn update ..\..\..\wc
cd ..
