denying access to sub-folder with SVNAllowBulkUpdates

Hi,

in one of our repositories, we deny access to a sub-folder like this

[calc:/branches/calc/bug-142]
harry = rw
sally = r
[calc:/branches/calc/bug-142/secret]
harry =

http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.8/svn.serverconfig.pathbasedauthz.html

When browsing the repository the access is correctly denied,
but on checkout the secret sub-folder is checked out as well.

We use 'SVNAllowBulkUpdates Prefer' in this repository and
I noticed that, if I remove 'SVNAllowBulkUpdates Prefer'
the access is correctly denied to the sub-folder when using checkout.

Is this a known bug?
I tested this with subverision 1.9.6 on windows with a WANdisco
installation.

cheers
Dominik
