svn export and checkout syntax seem inconsistent

Dear People,

Consider

faheem /tmp/foo>svn export svn+ssh://bose/home/faheem/repos/corrmodel/trunk/ .
svn: Destination directory exists; Please remove the directory or use
--force to ovewrite.
svn: '' already exists
faheem /tmp/foo>svn co svn+ssh://bose/home/faheem/repos/corrmodel/trunk/ .
A schema.tex
A pytest.py

I don't see why there is this difference. The directory in question is
empty in both cases.

BTW, note the small typo in the error message above -- `ovewrite'
should be `overwrite'.

Please CC me, I'm not subscribed. Thanks.

                                                           Faheem.
