That's very strange because even if I follow your steps my "aaa.txt"
file still does not get updated:

Y:\test2\wc2>svn patch p.patch
U bbb.txt

Y:\test2\wc2>

My machine is plain Windows 7 Enterprise with a few developement tools
installed (Visual Studio).

So I also tested this on a Windows 2003 Server machine which still has
SVN 1.7.4 and it gave me the same result:

V:\temp\wc2>svn patch p.patch
U bbb.txt

V:\temp\wc2>svn --version
svn, version 1.7.4 (r1295709)
    compiled Mar 5 2012, 09:29:21

Any ideas what I can do to isolate the problem?
