Ah, you didn't initially say that "ext" was fetched via the
svn:externals property. If that's the case, then you can't have a
real directory "ext" in the working copy -- it would collide with the
one the external tries to fetch.

You could try setting "svn:externals" of repo/project/trunk to have
two items:

ext url://to/ext
ext/something url://to/something

Don't know if that works.
