svn export bug in cygwin, with svn 1.0 client
i tried a:
ls /cygdrive/d/tmp/ # works
svn export trunk/proj/ /cygdrive/d/tmp/myproj # does not work
svn: Can't create directory '/cygdrive/d/tmp/myproj': The system cannot find the path specified.
while in the normal w2k command prompt it works. is this a bug or misuse?

The svn commandline client isn't a native cygwin binary like the 'ls'
command is. It doesn't understand cygwin "mounts", because it's a
normal win32 console application. So the answer is: misuse. If you
want to use svn in cygwin, build it in cygwin.
