I have upgraded *both* the top-project and the one referenced by the
svn:externals (manually with 1.7.5). The problem I tried to describe was
that "svn status" no longer followed the "svn:externals" into the
sub-directory. If I use "svn status proj1/proj2-subdir", my svn will
accurately show the status of the "proj1/proj2-subdir" directory, but "svn
status proj1" never even looks at the "proj1/proj2-subdir" directory.
