Are you sure that this was the whole error shown by TSVN? Did you scroll
down in the list control? Because sometimes the last line isn't scrolled
into view correctly, but you can scroll down to see the last line.
(Just to make sure)
I checked the code and I also can't reproduce this with http access (ok,
haven't tried svn://, but I'd like to avoid installing svnserve just for
this).
