svn checkout -N is currently broken.
see http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=695.
You are seeing a manifestation of this. The wc doesn't realize that
there are only those directories locally so it gets messed up when
you do the copy. What you could do is copy the subdirectories individually
into the tag, then commit it. It was the copy of trunk that was the
problem.
