Hi, I had posted to the svn list that I couldn't
reproduce this issue in my setup.

Here is what I saw with this type of export:
$ svn export file:///svn/test/exe test_export
A    test_export
A    test_export/file
A    test_export/file/new_sub_file.txt
A    test_export/file.exe

Exported revision 30.

Or am I missing something?
