SVN 1.1.1: Cannot find .subversion folder (CYGWIN)

Hi...

Till a few hours ago I was happilly running svn 1.0.4 (self compiled) on 
cywin  (client) and Linux (server).
Now I updated to 1.1.1 and the svn commandline client can no longer find 
my homeaccount where the .subversion folder is.

My scenario:
- WinXP pro SP2 (and Win2000 SP4)
- cygwin 1.3.22 (I know there is 1.5.x, but I have to stick with 1.3 for 
a while)
   Installed in D:\path\cygwin\
- Linux Subversion 1.1.1 server (i think this does not matter here)
- My home account is on a samba 3 server in the network.
   $HOME and /etc/passwd is set to
   //server/share/User/roland

When I now do a 'svn up' it first takes some ages then the I am asked 
for my password to my svn repos.
When sniffing a bit around it appears that svn looks for the .subversion 
folder in
D:\path\cygwin\server\share\User\roland\.subversion

It cannot find anything there... After entering my password manually it 
updates my working copy, which
btw resides also in my homeaccount on the samba share.

This is a bit odd and at present prevents me from switching over to 1.1.x.
I just recompiled my 1.0.4 and here I am very fine it works good. So 
this smells like a bad bug or a completely stupid Roland....

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Roland
