Sounds more like, starting a short while ago your build started
incorrectly copying the .svn directories into the bin directories. You
already stated that before the bin folder had no .svn folder,
TortoiseSVN would not have added it without you telling it to. The
change marker is there because now there's a .svn directory, and all
the files it references are missing, which shows up as a modified
status for the directory.

Neither?
The problem is likely with eclipse or whatever is creating the bin
directories. It appears to be incorrectly copying the .svn
directories from the src directories. Then when you do an update, the
.svn directory is really from your src directory and points to that
location in the repository, and thus it re-grabs those src files. You
need to fix eclipse or your build setup to exclude .svn directories
when it is copying the src directories.
