FW: subversion 1.40 svn checkout crash (again)

I have reproduced the same crash reported in this previous e-mail:

  subject: subversion 1.4.0 svn checkout crash 
  From: Moisei Rabinovich <moisei_at_gmail.com> 
  Date: 2006-10-03 04:20:20 CEST

On a Windows box, the crash occured when I did a check-out to a
substituted drive (SUBST command)

svn co file:///c:/repos/vbsalt/trunk s:\

The checkout is called from a windows batch file.  Strangely, the same
checkout using TortoiseSVN works. I've reproduced the crash four times
and have a DrWatson crash dumps I have attached to this email.

The crash always occurs around the same file during the checkout.  There
are several thousand files in the repository.  Deleting the file from
the repository simply causes the crash to occur several files later.

IMPORTANT: changing the target from a substituted drive to a real drive
path causes the crash not to happen.

The machine Win XP SP2, svn version 1.4.0 (r21228), running svnserve on
the same machine.

The drive substitution is:  SUBST S: C:\source\vbsalt\trunk

In case anyone is wondering how to enable crash dumps on Windows, type
the following in a command window

c:\windows\system32\drwtsn32.exe -i

This puts some registry keys in HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\AeDebug, and the Dr Watson log files get put into
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Dr Watson
