Yes, it does.  I edebugged vc-svn-state and it does use the -v option to
svn status, so the output should look like that:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
% svn status -u src/de/uni_koblenz/jgralab/GraphIO.java
        *     1170   src/de/uni_koblenz/jgralab/GraphIO.java
Status against revision:   1182
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

It seems that the vc commands use temporary buffers most of the time
which makes it hard to debug.  There's *vc* and " *VC-SVN temp*" (or
something like that, but currently I'm failing to see which command
creates them...
