Sounds like a bug in subversions. cvs substituted /dev/null as I
recall.

Actually, it's not a bug at all. Or at least, i can't reproduce it at all

You'll also notice, BTW, that it substituted in gcc/.svn/empty-file for the empty file, which is what it is supposed to do (in 1.4, we remoed the empty file and just use /dev/null)
