This is already known.

The hope is that the new working copy meta data store in 1.7.x will fix this.
If you have the time you could help verifying if this problem has indeed been
fixed by compiling Subversion's trunk code on Mac OS X and checking out a
working copy with the resulting binary. Or wait until pre-release
binaries for Mac OS X are available for testing and check back then. Thanks!
