Then maybe "svn status -v" is not the right (or not the only) command
you should try.  My point is that you should find out which SVN
commands are invoked by vc-dir in this use case, and then see what did
SVN produce for these commands outside of Emacs.

It also could be that this is not a Windows-specific issue.
