   I have never seen such an error. Even the great Google shaman doesn't
know of it :-)  I am using SVN version 0.33.0 (r7737) and it works
perfectly (I just checked the repository). There might be something
wrong with your SVN installation, or maybe packet losses; in this case,
try to cd to your incomplete directory and re-run "svn update".

change to do, so I commited the fix to SVN.
