Why aren't you using Subclipse? If you were, those .svn folders would not
get put into the bin folder. This is not a problem in TortoiseSVN or
Subversion, it is just that those .svn folders should not be there. The
fact that they are makes your WC invalid. The Eclipse build copies them
there from the src folders. When Subclipse is installed, this does not
happen because Eclipse knows that it shouldn't.
