svn:externals problems

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

I've been having problems with svn:externals.  Anyone else seen these?

The value of svn:externals in these examples for ./tool/ is:

pant http://repository.pediddle.net/pant/trunk/

* On Linux, after clearing the ./tool directory and running "svn up", I get:

  cartman:build$ svn up
  A  tool
  Updated to revision 3.
  
  Fetching external item into tool/pant
  subversion/libsvn_subr/io.c:1613: (apr_err=2, src_err=0)
  svn: No such file or directory
  svn: svn_io_file_open: can't open `tool/pant/.svn/lock'

* On Windows XP, it appears to work fine (at least over the Samba share I'm 
using).

If I change the value of svn:externals to include a trailing slash after the 
"pant", as in:

pant/ http://repository.pediddle.net/pant/trunk/

then,

* On Linux, I get:

  cartman:build$ svn up tool
  A  tool
  Updated to revision 2.
  svn: subversion/libsvn_subr/path.c:165: svn_path_join: 
  Assertion `is_canonical_nts (component, clen)' failed.
  Aborted

* On Windows XP over a Samba share, I get:

  Fetching external item into tool/pant/
  svn: The system cannot find the path specified.
  svn: svn_io_file_open: can't open `tool/pant//.svn/tmp/auth/username'

So, has anyone tested svn:externals functionality recently?  I don't remember 
having a problem back around Oct 8, but I didn't really test it.

Does anyone have any ideas for a workaround on Linux?

Thanks!

Sorry, forgot to mention:

On Windows XP, I'm running the r3200 release (installer). On Linux, I'm 
running my home-grown r3370.

I wonder if that indicates that something changed between 3200 and 3370.

Not hand-tested recently, but there are some regression tests for it.
Apparently not thorough enough.

File an issue, if you don't mind.  (I'd like to jump on it now and
start debugging, but... Well, we'll be back to our regularly scheduled
programming as soon as we can :-) ).
