I don't see it happening, and I can't think of a situation it will.
Say that you want to add "foo" and ignore txt files, this:

> svn propedit svn:ignore foo
  svn: 'foo' is not under version control

is obvious -- it's not added yet. And this:

> svn propget svn:ignore .
  *.txt
> ls foo
  checklist.txt
> svn add foo
  A foo
  A foo/checklist.txt

is because the property applies only to a directory.
