svn mv's and empty commits

Moving a file using URLs into one of its parent's directories where the
destination URL ends only in the destination directory looks like it succeeds,
but does not. For example,

svn mv http://example.com/repos/A/B/file.txt http://example.com/repos/A/

causes this. If you use http://example.com/repos/A/file.txt, then you get the
add and the delete.

Has this been seen before? I looked through the issue tracker quickly and
didn't see anything.

At the end of this recipe, you end up with an empty commit. This happens with
1.3.2.

rm -fr repos wc
svnadmin create repos
svn co file://`pwd`/repos wc
cd wc
svn mkdir A
svn mkdir A/B
svn ci -m 'create A/B'
touch A/B/file.txt
svn add A/B/file.txt
svn ci -m 'add file.txt'
cd ..
svn mv -m 'move file.txt' file://`pwd`/repos/A/B/file.txt file://`pwd`/repos/A
cd wc
svn update
svn log -v -r HEAD
