svn_client_update2 doesn't update directories. svn up does ?????

I have an MFC client written to the 1.2.3 API. We are using a vanilla 1.3.0
server.
We have a huge 30GB+ repository shared by about 50 users.

It appears the svn_client_update2 function isn't always updating directories
that exist in the repository.

I add a directory "foo" to the root of the repository and commit it.
On another machine when I do "svn up foo", I can see the new "foo" directory
being added.
However when I make the svn_client_update call, all I get is "Skipped a
path" from the notification callback.

 If I try to update the parent directory with svn_client_update2, I don't
get any notification at all (Svn up works okay). It's like Subversion
doesn't even know about the newly added directory.

I can reproduce this on my machine by
1) removing the "foo" from the entries file and
2) deleteing the "foo" directory from the locally copy.
svn up consistently brings the directory back, but svn_client_update2 does
not.

When I trace thru the subversion code, I see svn_client__update_internal
returning SVN_ERR_WC_NOT_DIRECTORY.

I've experimented with everything I can think of and I am at a loss.
Can someone shed some light on this problem?
This seems like it may be related to the "svn co -N " bug (#695 i think)
