Is this using the the Windows self-installer? We made changes a while
ago to keep .svn directories from being installed by the Unix and
Windows makefiles:

And I can confirm that at least the Unix makefile doesn't install them.
But as far as I know, the NSIS installer still includes them. I wrote a
patch that I think fixes the problem, but it was never merged:
