Issue performing updates on repositories with circular links in windows.

I have recently updated to the 1.8 site (from 1.6) and am now experiencing an issue when performing commands on working copies which contain a link back to themselves (these are windows "links", which are the equivalent of a symlink)
The update or commit completes, but progress remains at 100% with the job not finishing until I get the following in the log file (and an out of memory error)

!ENTRY org.eclipse.core.jobs 4 2 2012-10-12 09:33:39.584
!MESSAGE An internal error occurred during: "SVN Update".

The 1.6 site didn't exhibit this behaviour.
The circular link is on the svn ignore list and is created with the command,  
"mklink /D foldername ."
It is also excluded from the eclipse buildpath

Any help on how I can stop subclipse from (I presume) keep processing this circular link would be much appreciated.
