I don't recall exactly the issue, but it all started when someone made a
code checkout with Cygwin and then committed with TortoiseSVN. Because
Cygwin and native Windows builds of Subversion use different working copy
representations of symlinks, suddenly all of the symlinks in the repository
were broken. In the process of reverting his changes, older versions of
Subversion stopped being able to update. Then I removed those symlinks
from the tree entirely, except for one, and now Subversion 1.7.2 on Linux
cannot update.

Thanks,
Chad
