svn status returns incorrect results on Windows 7

Hi,

I am running Subversion 1.7.2 64 bit installer from CollabNet on
Windows 7. The problem I'm experiencing can be seen in the output
below. In summary, svn status is returning incorrect results,
sometimes not showing that something has been modified and sometimes
not recognizing that I'm in a working copy. This happens for me no
matter how many times I recreate the working copy, and it happens if I
store the working copy in C:\Users... as below or in C:\work. I do
not have the same problem when trying to reproduce the problem with
svn 1.7.2 on Solaris.

PS C:\Users\myuser\wc> svn st
M a\b\file.txt
PS C:\Users\myuser\wc> cd a
PS C:\Users\myuser\wc\a> svn st
PS C:\Users\myuser\wc\a> cd b
PS C:\Users\myuser\wc\a\b> svn st
svn: warning: W155007: '.' is not a working copy

Does anyone know why this is happening? I searched for this problem
and only found TortoiseSVN users complaining about it, and some
suggestions to make sure the user has full control of the filesystem.
I did this without resolution, but decided to post here since it is a
Subversion issue (with Windows 7 perhaps) and not a TortoiseSVN issue.

Thanks.
Justin
