It's probably all jammed up with pointy-hair.

Yes, I don't quite know where it's going and why at this point. I will try
and get the drive selection stuff in before tomorrow, so that we can get
better feedback on this.

It should be much faster ultimately, because should almost never have to do
an SVN status fetch.

This is probably the 'pushing-up-into-unversioned-folders' bug, (now fixed)
which manifests itself in strange ways, because it won't push-up across the
'unversioned gap' unless you've been down into the versioned part of the tree.

But the top edges of WC's are quite hard to deal with correctly, so there
could be other problems.
