[Message part 2 (message/rfc822, inline)]
If I run vc-dir in a svn controlled directory called 'Test Networks'
(with the internal space but not the quotes!), I get a wrong-type-argument
error, with the following traceback -
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument arrayp nil)
ewoc-data(nil)
vc-dir-node-directory(nil)
when I don't have debug-on-error set to t the *vc-dir* process never
completes.

appear in the "svn status" output. So I applied this patch.
