Done. The script reproduces the problem on two machines. One of my colleagues
also has the problem on a third machine.
Here is the output from my work machine:
802593...@btg245549 /cygdrive/c/svn-test-dr1
$ ./reproduce.sh
R=file:///C:/svn-test-dr1/repos
cygwin warning:
MS-DOS style path detected: C:/svn-test-dr1/repos/format
Preferred POSIX equivalent is: /cygdrive/c/svn-test-dr1/repos/format
CYGWIN environment variable option "nodosfilewarning" turns off this warning.
Consult the user's guide for more details about POSIX paths:

I did as you asked and the problem still occurs. When we originally came across
this we were using Cygwin paths.
The output:
802593...@btg245549 /cygdrive/c/svn-test-exe
$ svn list file:////cygdrive/c/svn-test-repo
