I'm pretty sure you already handle this, but make sure that all paths you pass to Subversion APIs are in theSubversion canonical C:/WD form.
All APIs except for a few conversion APIs in the svn_dirent_* namespace assume canonical paths for their arguments. (There are some legacy conversion APIs in svn_path_*, but I would recommend not using them for new code).
The SharpSvn library I maintain for .NET support on Windows is a bit more friendly here (as are some other bindings), in that it handles the path conversions for you.

I then checkout from the repository to it and update it using SVN api (all ok), now "C:\WD" exists and when I call svnURLPath on it, the url is returned fine.

The behavior I expect is an error thrown saying this path does not exist in the repository (because it really still doesn't), but the execution just crashes inside svnURLPath, more specifically in the svn_client_url_from_path2(). (I also tested with a more simple fullPath = "C:\\WD\\Test" and crashes the same). Looking at this function I notice the svn_dirent_get_absolute() call with the same "path_or_url" argument and jumped to the conclusion that this was the problem. But it may well be the second function svn_wc__node_get_url(), getting lost with an unknown path. I am not, maybe it is a Windows specific problem?
Not impossible, though highly unlikely; we'd have noticed that.
I suggest that, instead of guessing, you run this in a debugger so that
you can see exactly where the crash occurs and why. Post the result (the
stack trace with all parameter values, and local variable values at the
point of the crash) to the dev@ list.
