This leaves you with one choice but to run cleanup on the referenced actual
working directory which was AFAIK never the case for any version below 1.8.
Not sure if this is a problem with svn or FreeBSD itself but thought I would
report the characteristics in case it's noticed elsewhere.
Details:
Using UFS
FreeBSD 8-STABLE i386 as of this date.
In the directory...
cd /exports/usr
ln -s src8 src
svn up /exports/usr/src
