Re: Nasty double-replace copy-on-update bug

Grr, arg! I've been testing with the wrong version of my script (and
the one I attached earlier was wrong too). You're right; the patch
doesn't work.

One thing to do might be to instrument calls to svn_wc_adm_open3.

(The only difference between previous and current test is a filename.
Damn bugs that depend on order of iteration...)

Real test attached.
