That's not really a bug but designed that way. You see, while you're
updating, the working copy becomes locked (locked in the sense that the
update or any other operation prevents other Subversion operations from
working). If that happens and the explorer asks for the overlays, TSVN
simply checks for the existence of the .svn folder. If that folder is
present, it returns 'normal' so the explorer will show the green
overlay. It does this because if the working copy is locked, it can't
get the status at all, so *everything* is assumed versioned.

Once the update has finished, the lock is removed and other Subversion
operations will succeed again (like fetching the status). Then a refresh
in the explorer will show the correct overlays again.
