weird.
what comes to my mind is:
- are you sure you have enough space on your disk? (svn needs more  
space than cvs, as it caches the original copy of a file)
- i have encountered problems on w32 with "forbidden" filenames, such  
as "AUX" and "COM", but this doesn't seem to be the case here...
- svn is less tolerant than cvs when it comes to collisions: e.g. if  
you have a file "Hello.c" and a file "hello.c" in the same directory  
and your local filesystem is case-insensitive, the checkout will fail.  
nevertheless, i haven't find a case-problem in the  
gridflow/doc/flow_classess folder.
