svnadmin hotcopy results missing first letter

When I use svnadmin hotcopy the resulting backup files are missing their
first letter.  Here is an example of my results:

av

b

db

EADME.txt

format

locks

ocks

onf

ooks

ormat

 

I can't find anything on this error except this old post:

http://svn.haxx.se/users/archive-2004-07/0714.shtml

 

I am currently using SVN Version:

svnadmin, version 1.4.6 (r28521)

   compiled Dec 20 2007, 16:33:06

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks!

OK, here's something weird.

My directory is setup like the following:
Repositories: E:\Subversion\Repositories\
Backup: E:\Subversion\Backup\

If I am in E:\Subversion\Repositories\DemoSecurityWebApp and use
relative paths with the command:
E:\Subversion\Repositories\DemoSecurityWebApp>svnadmin hotcopy .
..\..\Backup\DemoSecurityWebApp

I get the issue I described below with the missing first character.  

However, if I am in the same directory but use absolute paths:
E:\Subversion\Repositories\DemoSecurityWebApp>svnadmin hotcopy
e:\Subversion\Repositories\DemoSecurityWebApp
e:\Subversion\Backup\DemoSecurityWebApp

Everything comes out fine.

Seems like there is a bug in the hotcopy functionality.

This is on Windows Server 2003 Std Ed with SP2.
