svn diff --notice-ancestry: strange behavior

I noticed the following strange behavior using svn 1.0.6 (built from
the source tarball, running on linux, with db-4.2.52, with apr from
apache 2.0.50, accessing the repos through svnserve). I do:

   svn diff --notice-ancestry \
            --old svn://host/rep/proj/branches/b1/dir1 \
            --new svn://host/rep/proj/trunk/dir1

And I see a file in "dir1" getting deleted and added-back again with
exactly the same contents. This what I expected to see. Then I do:

   svn diff --notice-ancestry \
            --old svn://host/rep/branches/b1/dir1 \
            --new ./dir1

Where "dir1" is a fully up-to-date working copy, and I see no
differences. It seems as if "--notice-ancestry" was ignored in the
latter invocation. Is this reasonable, or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks in advance for for your replies
