I can reproduce based on your script. Please file an issue.
Thanks for your bug report, and for being so patient, and for not giving up :)

I used this command sequence with 'svn' built from trunk:

[[[
svnadmin create /tmp/repos

mkdir -p /tmp/wcwmain/sub
echo empty > /tmp/wc/empty.txt

svn import -m "" wc file:///tmp/repos
svn checkout --force file:///tmp/repos /tmp/wc

svn propset svn:externals "^/empty.txt empty-main.txt" /tmp/wc
svn propset svn:externals "^/empty.txt empty-sub.txt" /tmp/wc/sub
svn commit -m "" /tmp/wc

svn checkout file:///tmp/repos /tmp/wc2
svn -v status /tmp/wc2

svn update /tmp/wc2
svn -v st /tmp/wc2
]]]

+ svn -v status /tmp/wc2
                 2 2 stsp /tmp/wc2
    X 2 1 stsp /tmp/wc2/empty-main.txt
                 2 1 stsp /tmp/wc2/empty.txt
+ svn update /tmp/wc2
