two (educated) guesses:
1) the metadata in .svn has been corrupted, so that the WC's repo URL
lacks file:// or http:// or svn:// or whatever schemes are supported.
2) there is an svn:external property somewhere that exhibits the same
problem (repo URL missing scheme).
both guesses should be falsifiable. To check the first, use 'svn
info'. To check the second, use 'svn pg svn:externals' (also,
recursively for subdirs may be needed).
