Re: externals bug?

Hi everyone,

    Here is a script that causes this problem, this only fails in
Subversion 1.0.6, version 1.1.0 RC2 is fine. The version that fails is
on Fedora core 1, with Berkeley DB 4.1.25-14, the version that works is
on RedHat 7.3, with Berkeley DB 4.2.52.NC. So this may already be fixed...

Thanks,
Lee
